Yep, Fram is total junk. I used to be a HP-1 lemming and while they do have a heavier can it's still the same junk media inside.
I use Napa gold (1521) on type 4 and for FF remote filter adaptors, 911 and the 996 filter conversion. Mahle, Mann or Bosch are 2nd choice, they're still good filters at a bit cheaper price. I'd also put Wix on the list, but they're not a common brand here. I used to use cheap fram's for break-in, my logic was it was only going to be used for 20-30 minutes to a max of 500 miles. Then I had a POS fram spit out the O-ring seal, sending a stream of oil that hit the 12' ceiling and the wall 32' away, hosing 3 cars in the process. The pressure actually bent mount plate of the filter, never made that mistake again. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) |
