If you replace the water pump right off the bat, Taurus, Edge, Flex. Aside from the water pump, the NA cyclone is bulletproof.

I can't ask the original owner anymore but the expert says he used it for cultivating. ( if I remember correctly, Those were mounted between the front and rear wheels.) The expert also said that he kept it narrow on that one because of the grader blade as it was more maneuverable and easier to turn.

It did when it was new; however, it was been modified to a wide front end many decades ago (If I remember correctly with an aftermarket part). Back in the day, I drove it along with a narrow front end WD, and a WD-45 also with a aftermarket wide front end modification and I know what you're...

Thank you everyone, I will pass this along. It certainly has some deferred maintenance as it has been sitting for 3 years which isn't surprising (though I am positive the oil filter has been changed since AC was bought out as Affinia got Wix around '04 and he wouldn't have neglected his...

Someone in my family is acquiring a late '40s to '50s Allis Chamlers WD. Looking at it, the previous owner used the name brand Allis Chamlers oil filter which was apparently at the time made by Wix during the Affina era. When it comes time for that person to change the oil, I was wondering if...

Yeah, I would start shopping at Aldi to fix that problem. My grandparents never set foot in a Whole foods and are 92 and 93. They ate right, made mostly homemade dishes,xand exercised daily.

I believe it. I hear stories like this from friends all the time. One of them did a drive at church for supplies to help his students. It's sad to say the least. This is part of the reason I am a bit dogmatic about US made stuff as my home town lost its industry in the 90s. The town is a shadow...

The Fram Endurance would be pretty much the same filter as the Amsoil for a lot less money. As to being surprised that Fram is recommended anywhere, just look at the cut open photos. The Frams hold up better than their competitors. The Fiber end disc design has proven itself to be tear free vs...

You don't need to worry about restrictiveness thanks to positive oil displacement pumps. Zee-0-Six has explained this in many forums. If anecdotal evidence will help you, take a look at the number of high mileage filters cut open over the years on here with high efficiency ratings and consider...

Both. When I was praising Affinia Wix, I was praising the standard Wix/Napa Gold when Affinia was in charge. The Wix XP of memory serves correctly was a creation of Affinia but it was still a rock catcher 50%efficiency at 20microns vs. The standard Wix at 95% efficiency at 20microns. I think M&H...

The 90 era food in my Midwestern school system was downright terrible. Everything had a strange after taste and even the bread. It was mostly prepackaged food. The only highlight was occasionally desserts when they had them. The peanut butter treats were the best, the cookie brownies were also...

Affina Wix was a great filter. M&H Wix just isn't the same just as M&H Purolator isn't what Purolator was previously. Wix XP is a nice looking filter but the media is rock catcher. In my opinion it goes like this: 1. Fram Endurance for the best of all applications top level efficiency, mileage...

The modern Fram Ultra is no longer wire backed but it still has great efficiency. The Wix XP is still wire backed last time I checked but the efficiency is a rock catcher. What are you looking for in your filter? How long a service interval? How important is filtering efficiency? Etc.

A couple clarifications: Fram has been using fiber end discs for decades now. They are found on the spin on versions of the Extra guard, Tough Guard. If you want spin on filters from Fram, get the Ultra/Titanium (synthetic blend media) or the Endurance full synthetic media wire backed. The Wix...

Not trying to start any brand arguments but are these from the same installer and brand? How are the warranties between the two and not just for the units but on the installer for labor? Have you seen any of the work that they've done before see if they do a great job on the duct work and other...

Basically yes and it is a great filter I love the job it's doing on my Viper so far, but the original ultra was ever slightly better. It would be great if they could have kept the original ultra running but the Endurance is still an excellent substitute.

Not the greatest car but not the worst. The intake gaskets, electronics, but nothing too serious. On the plus side, you don't have to do a timing belt job on this as you would need to on the Toyota and Honda V6s from this era. So what you're saving on the timing belt job you can spend on the...

Amazing! Hopefully they will Revive this product line.

This discussion is getting old. I don't care about your purchase, it is in the past. The purpose of this thread was to discuss the poster's problem which others have verified and lawsuit settlements have confirmed it. Just do a Google search. Appliance repair technicians who are content creators...

It's your money you can spend it on whatever you want with what criteria you want but I will challenge you on a couple points. The problems with LG compressors are quite well known. Most of the sources I see do not recommend LG for much other than front load washers or impeller washers. (Even...
