    Which brand oil filter Should I use????????

    I read some where that fram oil filters were to fine and would result in dirty oil being released back into the engine.

    TIA

    All I use is Wix. All my place of employment uses is Wix. Going on 48 years now, so I guess something is going right. Wix is good, Napa gold is Wix and also so is the Carquest Blue packaging. Mobil 1 and K&N's seem to be good too (used those on an Eagle Talon TSI)

    Fram is crap... Yep.
    I have a Wix on my new 401. Not sure where my father-n-law got it. I bought STP filters for the engine job and destroyed one when we had to change oil pressure sender to 88 style after it was in the truck. So, he handed me the Wix. Not sure how well the STP models hold up to Wix. AC is good too tho.

    Gotta throw in another for Wix. Best filter out there by far.

    I definitely found that my oil didn't look the best with Fram even aftert 500 or so miles. Ive been urged to use AMS OIL in a dual filter system for my trucks. Its suposed to go for 100k between changes
    SPREAD IT ON!

    TRACTOR NO!

    If they are saying 100K without a oil filter change they are filling you with hops and barley....maybe 10K but that is pushing it....bigtime
