    The new Supertech 9972 (Toyota cartridge filter) is rather impressive

    I just searched the Walmart website and could not find a ST0018 oil filter. I question the validity of this Walmart reviewer. I found the review on the Walmart website. “ST0018” appears in the title of the review and twice in the text. I don’t think it’s a typo.

    Is factory fill Toyota oil different?

    1994 Camry 5SFE Empty Oil Filter

    I have changed oil & filters in Mom's 98, my brother's 01, and my own 00 Camry many times. All have the 5SFE engine and various filter brands were used. All were empty after 10-15 minutes as you described. Must be nature of the beast.
