    After 5+ years MetalSlug is going back using motorcraft oil filter on my Ford vehicles only.

    I have two Ford vehicles. For the F-150, I can use the Motor craft filter. It uses a cartridge and I can see whether it's quality or not. Generally, I just buy whatever brand is readily available. The Escape uses the FL-910s size filter. It gets nothing but the Premium Guard made filters.

    Note from WIX, Chevy 5.3L LC9 oil filters

    The oil gauges on that era of GM vehicles weren't exactly finely tuned instruments.

    New-ish Maytag washing machine from 2018 is already dead

    Do you use liquid fabric softener? If so, stop. It's a waxy substance that can clog your washing machine. Instead, use white vinegar. It works pretty good as a fabric softener and keeps your washer clean.
