It reminds me of the old FRAN OIL FILTER with the toilet paper as a element
which I used in a Toyota. The engine after 80K was had barely any wear on
it. Though, the rest of the car was trashed. LOL

It does look very interesting. I wonder if it's just another myth,
though. Even if I did get one, I think I'd still change my oil every 3K
miles. I'm just anal like that.
