With the HEX HEAD, I do use a wench to remove the oil filter vice a
slip-grip oil canister wench.

I didn't know that - Why don't they put the hex head on the mobile 1
filters, then... THATS why I want it..

Barry, Mobile 1 and K&N are the same filter.
However, I do not recommend in using Mobile 1 Syntec in low tolerance manual
trannies.

What I heard was that adding ATF to engine oil essentially replaces some of
those components that normally break down first. Detergents and such
(forgive me, I am not a chemist) I tried this in an old jeep, and it did
work..it broke free enough crud to clog my oil pump and fill up my oil
filter with sludge... Personally, I just stick to Mobil 1 every 5k with
mobil 1 filters...

I know it's an ol' secret to add some ATF just prior to changing the oil
to help celan out the engine. Let me ask the following:
1) Does this really work?
2) How much ATF do you add?
3) How long do you run the engine for and at what speed?
Thanks
william
