How much did the Purolator synthetic filter run you?
Ten miles seems enough use. I would remove it and cut it open with pics so we can see the insides. I am sure they have more in the stores.

What were you expecting to happen in 10 miles of use?

Actually I do check my oil (for a 2nd check) after my first drive to make sure after the engine warmed up that there were still no leaks due to the filter and its mount warming up.

ok i finnaly got back to your Qs.
1.i think $12-16
2.i dont have a place to cut it open. but cutting it after a oil change i would learn more.
3. the 10 mile run was to check for leaks.
4.i run 3000 mile changes. i know some say it could go longer, but iam old school.
5. dont know what HDMI is.

The HDMI comment was a joke, its a cable for a HD TV. I would cut it open but you would have to mail it to me. I have the $50 cutter.

Are Purolator Synthetic filters more prone to leaks?

Using a $16 filter for 3000 miles seems like massive overkill to me, but if it makes you happy....
i think i didnt make my self clear, " more prone to leaks?" i had NO reason to think that. if i thought that leaks was a trouble i would never have bought it. " massive overkill " yep most likely, but i wont leave it for my kids. for the first time i can spent money like I want. $16 isnt the biggest trouble i have. i have been driving since 1965 and have NEVER had a major oil engine failure and it wont happen now.
I'm approaching 20K miles in a Purolator Classic oil filter with 3 OCI's.
Are you going to cut open the 20k miles Purolator Classic oil filter ?
Yes in about 4k miles.
Exactly!, good for you. Look to get the VERY BEST filter, for the very best price and then enjoy knowing you're treating your engine like we all used to treat our High School girlfriends. Well done sir.
I get my Mobil 1/ K&N filter for < 8$ and feel good about my 5K OCI on a Tacoma that I hope to still have in 10 years.
cheers!
