I've got a tub full of used 7.3, 2F/3F and Camry / Highlander filters in different flavors... I should cut some open for a look when I'm bored.
 
While I haven’t seen the video yet.

I had a low pressure problem using napa oil filters in my FZJ. I was using the napa gold brand which I ended up with because I decided to do an oil change on a Sunday and found no toyota oil filters in my parts box, napa gold is just Premium Wix, This problem/issue is quiet common and well documented on mud.
 
I used to work at a lube shop right out of high school. After seeing Fram junk first hand, I would never use them in any of my equipment. Wix has been my goto for years!

Leo, interesting on the low pressure reading with Napa filters. I think I remember the exact opposite when I switched to Wix/Napa.

Wix Oil Filters
 
Did you really post this? Man that was a waste of time thought it was something new.:flush:
 
Did you throw that up based on the comment that WIX low volume might be produced by other manufacturers?
I used to use Purolator Pure One's, and the WIX was pretty similar to that.

more in reference to where I was coming from since I had a similar first hand experience; Was running Napa Golds that are produced by Wix and it my low pressure issue seemed to be the napa filter that just wasn't circulating oil well.

Did you really take the time to post this in a clubhouse section 2 days drive away from the Bay? :meh:
 
Why not? it didn't take me 2 days to write it.:rolleyes:
 
Thanks for your great input vipergrhd...

The wonderful thing about a forum is that anyone can post anything at any time. I am sure alot of people don't know everything like you clearly do. This gives them an opportunity to catch up. Beauty of the internet!
