Best Oil Filter

MUDDVOL · #1 (**permalink**) 03-15-2008, 09:22 AM

Just curious what oil filter you guys like to run, I have used the Napa Gold, but just wonder if there is something better, that costs less preferably?

Not a bypass, just a regular oil filter, I have seen the Motorcraft at Wal-Mart for $10, is it good for a 5k change interval?
Your thoughts and suggestions appreciated

Welcome to the org.

, any 15w40 oil is good. But then there is Amsoil and royal purple that are synthetics. Cost more but you can run a lot more miles on the oil. I usually use Castrol GTX. Or borrow it from work( I take it back after I'm done with it). We have conoco. All turbo approved.
