    Go to Oil Filters for today

    Been a Fram guy for a while and last OC I switched both cars over to O'Reilley's Microguard filters. Planning on going with Premium guard or Advanced Auto Carquest Premium filters next OC.

    All Fram 7317 filters sold out everywhere

    local walmart has them shipping - unavailable, pickup nearby, delivery - out of stock. I've switched over to the O'Reilley's MicroGuard filters. Been running the PH/TG7317 for years.

    TOYOTA OIL DRAIN PLUG GASKET

    I take our corolla on a highway run after an OC and then re-tighten the drain plug. The heat from the oil pan causes the adheseive to degrade, awful design. Luckily I just need to run it up on ramps to get under it.

    All Fram 7317 filters sold out everywhere

    What I use for our Honda, seems to be in stock locally here. To others points, maybe this is a good thing. I've been using the PH7317 for 10 years and this next OCI I've purchased O'Reilley MicroGuard filters. May just run with them or the Carquest filters going forward.

    CR-V burning oil, should I switch brands/weight?

    Our '14 CR-V has been burning about a quart of oil per OC for the last I don't know how many years. Getting ready to change after my first Valvoline fill run, we'll see if it's any different. Been using Pennzoil platinum and other major full syn brands since we purchased in '13.

    PB Blaster with a straw and flow volume control

    used the multi-max with the smart straw a couple days ago, believe I wasted a lot less oil and the dam door is quiet as a church mouse while operating, hats off to B'laster

    Valvoline Restore and Protect 0W-20 Honda CR-V

    Go Bobcats! I started using Valvoline Restore and Protect about a month ago in our '14 CR-V. Added 5 oz SeaFoam motor treatment to the crank case 300 mi before the change to clean it out. We'll see what it looks like at the next change.

    Impact Wrench ft/lbs vs ft/lbs leaning on ratchet wrench

    The Bauer 1/2 impact wrench stripped the mechanic torqued lugs off our vehicle with minimal effort. I purchased the 3/8" model for lighter jobs.

    Valvoline Restore and Protect

    '14 CR-V with about 145K, been doing 5K OCIs since I drove it off the lot, mostly Pennzoil platinum with some other higher end syns now and then. Been using Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage since about 80K. MM just hit 20%. Will top off the oil (burns off about a q per OCI), add 4.5 oz SeaFoam...
