Correct Oil Filter- READ - IMPORTANT!!!

[Steve Roseman]

Anytime I get a chance I try to talk people out of using Frams for any application.

Back in the 80s I worked for a company producing fuel filters for just about everything out there. The quality control standards for the Chrysler oem filters was higher than every after market fuel filter, the Fram being the lowest.

If a filter leaked air on the water test for Chrysler they would be set aside. The pressure would then be lowered to Fram specs and tested again. They were even allowed to leak a certain number of bubbles per minute for Fram

I was at Cummins Michigan a while back talking filters with the guy behind the counter and he stated that NAPA has paid for a few Cummins engines because their cheaper filter line (not NAPA Gold's) let loose internally and destroyed the engine. He didn't comment on Fram nor did I ask.

I love the way this stuff gets around. Napa doesn't even OFFER a cheaper line filter for the #1607 (the filter for our trucks).

Kinda off the subject sorta, but not really.

While were on the subject of filters, anyone know of a manufacturer of a coolant filter setup for our CTD's, big diesels have 'em, just curious.
