    It won't do any harm, but why not bag the dino idea and just run straight synthetic?

    "older" Oil Filter Study @ minimopar

    Here's the text of the email Russ Knize received from an Allied Signal engineer: Russell, I obtained great satisfaction from reading your oil filter survey. I worked for two years as the oil-filter production line engineer in an Allied-Signal FRAM facility and I can confirm every bad thing...

    Mobile 1 vs Delco UPF 44 Gold

    Champion stopped making them because Delco stopped ordering them. Demand was always slack because GM and/or Delco's marketing of the UltraGuards sucked canal water - i.e. availability limited to dealers and, I believe, Pep Boys.

    Mobile 1 vs Delco UPF 44 Gold

    IMHO, it's pretty much a jump ball between them. They're both made by Champion Labs, and are two of the beat filters you can buy. The UltraGuard Gold filters down to about 8 microns, the Mobil1 around 10. If I remember correctly, they both use synthetic media; the Mobil1's case is a hair...

    Where to buy Mobil 1?

    Some Wal-marts carry the 5qt jugs at times and others never do. Even with the stocking stores, availability hit-or-miss do to fact that the jugs are promotional items. When available the usual price is $17.88 (+ -) However, occasionally an individual location will basically give the jugs away ...

    Delvac 1 and moly

    It's unusual be not unique. The local Wal-Mart (Oroville, CA) had the 5qt. SS Mobil1 jugs on sale for $9.83 last month. Maybe mismarked, maybe not . . . but I picked up 17 of the 10W-30's and 3 15W-50's and they all scanned at that price at the checkstand.
