This only confirms what many DML'ers read on the internet
earlier this year about Fram oil filters. Someone did very
good research on many oil filter brands and Fram was definately
at the bottom because of cheap filter paper. If I remember
correctly paper particles were clogging oil pathways. TWO (2)
were reccomended AC DELCO and MOBIL1 (the best). But HEY!!,
hehe.....let 'em use whatever shines 'em on.
