This is super enjoyable to read these comments. Mr. Dun Right is a YouTube troll using idiots and alarming titles to make $$$$ from the click bait fools. Honestly there is no hope for folks who judge any kind of auto parts from watching idiots like him on Youtube. I couldn't say that while I...

Don't do that, I am not here to promote that. I have many fine friends and associates who still work there

Hello fellow BITOG'ers, Afraid to say my time with FRAM has come to an end. The Trico Group (yes, the wiper company) has purchased FRAM Group and promptly let the entire sales and marketing staff go. Still happy to answer general filter/spark questions but I am forbidden from commenting on any...

Amsoil and Royal Purple both have disclaimers on the capacity(mileage) ratings along with the fact they are single layer synthetic media filters, FRAM Ultra is two layers of synthetic media

Originally Posted by goodtimes If it wasn't an Ultra the talk would be all about how easy the caps came off, and that's no good.

Originally Posted by SubieRubyRoo I'd still love to see a filter made with the Wix-style construction for the ADBV interface, Fram Ultra media, thread-end bypass with 24-27 psi rating, and solid endcaps on the dome end with a coil spring. Make it in 3593A size, and I'll buy dozens of them for...

My garage did the same. I have three heated walls and uninsulated garage doors. I insulated the crap out of the doors with fiberglass batts, condensation problem was reduced tremendously, garage and house are much warmer as well. Not completely fixed but huge improvement.

It could not. The center tube is what supports the media when oil is flowing through it. The SAE spec is no collapse at up to 75psi differential pressure. Even cartridge filters have a center tube built into the housing. It is an essential part of the filter cartridge regardless of media...
