I like the wix filters, That's what I have run for years, but I tried =
one of the Mobil 1 filters in my 83 van. I ran Valvoline Durablend in =
it. After 5,000 miles the oil looked cleaner than I have ever seen it. =
I don't know whether it was the Durablend or the filter. I had run =
Quaker State 4x4 which is a synthetic blend. The Mobil 1 filter is not =
a paper element but a fiber element.

  Sounds like marketing hogwash to me. What the heck can they be trying
to say? Technically, what is different about the Mobil 1 filter that
makes it work better with synthetic oil? Can you run it with mineral
oil? Why or why not?

  The role of an oil filter is to filter out particulate matter. It
should filter out as fine particulates as is practical with as little
resistance as possible. This sort of physical process really shouldn't
be dependent on the base stock of the motor oil in question.

  As for me, I'll stick with Wix.

  What was that web site's URL, so I can check out these claims for
myself?

  Thanks,

  Ron
