    Clarification on Who Makes the New Mobil 1 Filter

    The 113s for my Hemi are all South Korean. This is why I suspect Pentius.

    SOPUS says a four year shelf life on their oil. My mere opinion is that it's much longer than that when stored properly.

    Do you replace a filter based on age instead of run time?

    My old truck sees about 2500 miles a year. I go two years with a PG241EX. It could probably go ten.

    Nope. Some jugs from SOPUS don’t have them, apparently. I got two jugs of M1 last summer that had a ruptured foil seal.

    Must be a regional thing. I’ve tried three different accounts, and no coupon.

    No coupon for me to clip. Is there some trick I’m missing?

    Yep. I've held it back for a reason.

    Cost of .22 Ammo

    I checked 7.62x39 the other night. Wow. I'm still shooting Golden Tiger I bought in 2006 for $.17/rd., shipped.

    Manual Transmission Calling for ATF. Why?

    My ‘86 Trooper II used the same. It was the MSG-5ET with the strange two piece transfer case.

    Has anyone tried Costa filters?

    The Pentius PLXL10060s I’ve been using are great. They are South Korean. A few months ago, some Chinese Pentius showed up with poorly machined center tubes. They had small metal disks hanging from a few of the holes where they weren’t properly/completely punched out. I don’t have time to chase...

    Do new filter in package have any damage/issue sitting extreme cold for 6 months

    The only thing that would be on my mind was mentioned above by Zee0Six……condensation/rust. If that was an issue, it should be obvious.

    Has anyone tried Costa filters?

    COF2222 is $48/10. The stenciling/sticker looks like Chinese PGI standard duty to me. It would be $38.40 for 10, shipped, with the discount. I’m tempted to pull the trigger, but I keep thinking about those Chinese Pentius with the hanging chads.

    Mine come out fine on about 3500 mi OCI. You sure that wasn’t somehow crushed during installation?

    Toyota’s stance on using a heavier weight oil

    I had guessed this recommendation was abandoned because moving up in grade won’t cure poor metallurgy or bearing design. Their initial stopgap, though, was moving up in weight…..for better protection. It was very telling advice.
