I had a Fram filter come apart on a Buick v6 back in the 80's. Cost me an engine for sure. The entire oil system was full of filter media.

Wow. Very interesting. I typically use Baldwin filters. I'm going to cut one open and see how it's made.

Yep. Pretty sure Fram filter killed my 5.4L Triton engine Filter with a good anti-drainback valve is critical on those motors due to so many moving parts in the valve train. I only run Ford filter on mine with 199k on the clock.

Napa gold filters. That's the only brand I will buy.

I was actually talking to a buddy of mine yesterday about this. I’ve been using wix exclusive for several years now. If I could just get wix to start putting fram’s Tough grip on their’s we’d be in business.

Be a good time to copy/paste the oil thread from 1/5/2019 that Jakethesnake had, but I can't get it to copy for some reason.
I hope they start making 6.2 quart containers of oil like my Ford requires. I'm going to start changing my oil myself again. I went to the local Chevrolet dealership to have the oil and filters changed last time and they hit me with a $100 bill, claiming the Valvoline oil was a super high price. Put in 1.5gallons and check it after a tank of gas. The .2 likely won't matter, engines always retain some oil during oil changes.

Saw the posted video a month or so ago. Had no idea Fran was such junk. That's all I've used in my Tacoma. I want to believe their ultra synthetic filters are much better quality as that's all I've used in the Avalon
The left lane is for the the purpose of moving the flow of traffic forward regardless of the speed limit. If your impeding the flow of traffic get your ass in the right lane. It's really that simple...

Wix is best for trap adapters A standard lawn mower muffler also makes good barrel trap.

Been using WIX filters for the last 9 years. Did oil changes in 2 of my 7 vehicles today. NapaGold was built by Wix at one time, Microgard is also a Wix filter.
