Mobil 1 Oil Filters to Canada

[OVERKILL]

Anybody in Michigan (or other northern states) and willing to ship me a few M1 oil filters for a Ford 302? Filter is the FL-1A equivalent.

We cannot get them up here and since they seem to work extremely well, I would like to try some. Currently I'm spending a fortune on the PureONE filters which may not be as good?

The K&N Oil Filters sold in Canada are the same filter, fundamentally, they just have a heavier case and the wrench lug unlike the Mobil 1 filters.

I thought the Mobil 1 filters had different filter media? I'd been using the K&N ones on the Mustang for YEARS. And dad is running them on both his '03 Townie and the Expedition.

Overk1ll.... Are you picking up your PureOne's in Canada?? If so, where do you get them from?

For the life of me, I cant find a supplier in Canada

Benson Autoparts carries them.

Aren't the Amsoil Eao filters the "cats meow" in oil filters right know?Those are readily available in Canada and probably just as pricey as the Mobil 1 after shipping and all.I use to go over to Murray's in Detroit all the time for Mobil oil filters then just stuck with the Napa Golds.

I would tend to think that EaO filters would be comparable to the costs involved with getting an M1 and maybe other filters given the oddity of issues with oil filters in Canada. I guess you have to pay for your XD-3 0w oils somehow.

There was a recent UOA that contrasted the particle counts between the two filters (Amsoil EaO and the M1) and the M1 seems to have done substantially better?

So, I'd like to try them

I've also considered trying a Cummins filter.....!

Well, as you know, I do already have the part number and I know it's available locally. I'm just curious to try the M1 filters I guess
