If your going to waste people time with an old video that has nothing to do with the subject matter, include something interesting.

I don't use Fram Ultra yet, but it would be the only Fram I would use without being worried
Walmart and auto parts stores across the world sell milions of fram orange can filters.
Except for this website I have never heard of an issue using fram.
I know better, I go for the supertech's on my scion, lol.

For me it would have been the early 70's. While Fram was OK Dad & I preferred the white STP filters with red printing back then.
When Fram bought Champion
In the 70s I got a Fram that the oil did not circulate through. It's been OEM on my cars ever since.

There was a time, perhaps 10-12 yrs ago, when using a Fram oil filter was equated to putting Supertech oil on your salad.

I have never bought into the automotive "old wive's tales" that get repeated tens of thousands, even millions of times in the back of shade tree shops by those who consider themselves experts on teh subject because they heard it from their brother-in-law's childhood friend, who works at a Ford dealership, who heard it from one of the old timer mechanics, who heard it from a Pennzoil rep.
Show me the science. Give me evidence. Without it, all you are doing is decreasing your credibility when you repeat these stories to me. I still live by the motto that used to hang over our office at one of my jobs. In God we trust. All others, bring data.

I've used Fram since the first oil change I did back in the 1970s. My only mistake was briefly switching to Purolator, that won't happen again.
