Mobil 1 high performance oil filter
Any opinions? Experience? Costs about double, 12.00.

The local parts store doesn't carry Wix. Are they priced similarly?

If anyone else is interested:
Like the Champ filter, this filter is made by Champion Labs. However, it
uses a unique end plate and a thicker can that make it the strongest
filter available for wide distribution retail sale. It also uses a
synthetic media, which improves filtration and flow.
I'm happy to say that this filter is NOT a fake. It is definitely a
unique design.
It uses a synthetic fiber element that can filter out very small
particles and is very strong. It is rated just under the Purolator Pure
One as far as filtering capability, but is still very much above
conventional paper filters. It also has a very strong construction to
withstand high pressure spikes during start-up. However, as with all
Mobil 1 products, expect to pay 2 - 3
times as much for this filter.
I have received many reports of these filters failing at high pressures.
It seems that the seam where the backplate crimps to the
case can split.

Then why not use the Purolator Pure One???
Check prices at Meijers (midwest), Advance auto.

Excellent advice. Found at Pet Boys. Two for 12.97 (with .99 tax)
that's less than the cost of one Mobel 1.
