Thank you for the links to other threads about the same topic. I am disappointed that these are being made in Mexico... I know some good products do come out of Mexico but I'd prefer to stay with US made filters. Guess I'll be using PureOnes after I use up these NapaGolds. At least I got them...

I did a couple searches on this topic but didn't come up with anything. I've been buying NapaGold oil filters (1334) discounted through my work in a bulk of 12/per case for the past couple years (we have several vehicles that use them) and I noticed the recent batch has "Made in Mexico"...

What did you use to cut it open? dremel with a cutting wheel?

my boss recently sent me on a run to hit about 12 or so Wal-Marts and I'd say about 10 of them had a handful of SuperTechs left but tons of Frams. Scarce on Mobil 1 as well at every single location

I've used the OEM MTF, Royal Purple MTF, Pennzoil MTF, and Amsoil MTF in my 04 Honda Civic Si and the Amsoil has been the best. 2nd and 3rd would grind with the OEM and Royal Purple stuff while the Pennzoil would make the gears feel a little more "notchy" especially in cold weather. The Amsoil...

hey all, lookin at an 89 honda civic hatch for $300 as a daily driver. has 305K on it but the body & paint are straight, interior is great, apparently it ran fine. the owner was installing a battery and hooked it up incorrectly (positive to negative, neg to pos). Ever since then the car hasn't...

oh whoops just noticed i posted this in the wrong section. could a mod please move it for me to the Mechanical/Maintenance section? Id appreciate that. thanks

Was checking out a 1985 Toyota Pickup Xtended Cab yesterday with the 22RE-T (2.4 Turbo). The car seemed to be running fine until you shifted out of Park. It immediately dies unless you keep the RPMS above 2K. The guy selling it said that it was diagnosed with fuel injector problems and he had...

oh and the reason i need name, age, and location is because the professor asked us to get that information from each person we surveyed/interviewed. didnt realize it'd get everyone all worked up

thanks to everyone who filled it out. appreciate it a lot.

Ok, I need to write a paper on the Car Tuner/Car Modifier community and the dialect of people who work on cars for one of my university courses. I'd really appreciate it if some of you could take the time to answer the questions I have written up. Some of the questions sound wordy but I have to...

I actually didnt get a chance to ask, he was with a customer at the time and I was just stopping in for a quick moment to look at prices. Yeah Im going to stick with a 5w-30. No one has made a definite connection to it, but a lot of owners with the same engine (k20a3) along with aftermarket...

thanks for the quick answers, ya'all!

Been thinking about switching over to Amsoil Oil for my Civic and noticed the local Amsoil dealer stocks both the 5w30 "ASL"(http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/asl.aspx) and the 5w30 "XLF" (http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/xlf.aspx). The "XLF" is about $1.50 less per quart. What warrants the ASL...

i should seriously invest in a clear bra. my headlights were shot from scratches and rock chips on my 04 Civic after two years. Had to pick up another OEM set

thanks folks, we had called napa and they said they didnt have it in stock, but we lucked out and went in person the same day and they did have one in stock.

thanks ya'all!

Hi guys, sorry bout the newb question. Didnt really know where to put this. My buddy has a 2002 Subaru Forester and he was changing the oil in it and mistaked the tranny filter as the oil filter. He pretty much destroyed the filter. No places around us carry a tranny filter for it and I was...

so can someone dumb it down for me and just give me a couple reasons why a group IV is usually considered better than a group III?

Wow, thanks for the PDF file, AndyH. That helped out a lot.
