Yea, I received a recall notice on my GP a few weeks ago. What a joke!! A new sparkplug wire guide of some sort to channel the oil away from the exhaust instead of fixing the cause?!?! Sorry you are having so many issues with your Buick. Overall I've been pretty pleased with the GP but the...

Hate to tell you this but the 3800 is pretty famous for a faulty intake manifold gasket. (Google 3800 manifold gasket) I have a '98 Grand Prix with the 3800 that leaks oil all down to the bottom of the engine and I'm pretty well sure it is coming out around the intake gasket as I can trace the...

Pablo, I know this thread is kinda old but is everything still going fine with the eao44 and the Odyssey? Do you have any pics? I'm seriously thinking about moving to the Amsoil filters and I am looking for the largest I can safely run for each application. '07 Odyssey 3.5l '00 GMC Sierra...

Thanks for the suggestions!! But I had something in mind like a cross reference based on actual physical size. Such as a grouping by thread size, filter diameter (or gasket diameter), etc. I really don't want to go down to my local auto parts store and take 10 or 15 filters out of the box to...

Is there such a thing as a filter size cross reference table? It seems if there is such a thing (yes, I have googled it) it would make it easier to find larger filters for different applications. Thanks, Kenny <>{

I have a factory installed filter minder/gauge (looks a lot like the picture in a previous post) on my 2000 GMC truck but it never moved that I could tell for a little over 50,000 miles. So I decided that was enough and replaced the factory original air filter with a FRAM. I took a look at the...

I'm a little uneasy thinking about sticking a loose magnet into the outlet side of my filter but I think it would work better than a magnet on the outside of the filter. Anybody using one in their filter?? Kenny<>{

Thanks for the comments! I was mistaken about the first year for OBDII. A Scangauge (XGauge) may be in my not so distance future... Kenny<>{

Does anyone use a Scangauge on their 1998 Grand Prix? If so, what readouts/codes are available since that was the first year of OBDII? Thanks!! Kenny <>{

Thanks for posting the pics!! I'm going to do the same to an FL1A in just a few days. I'm running an FL400S on my JD riding mower this year, talk about over-kill but what the heck I can't beat the price for a filter with such a great reputation!! Thanks again for taking the time. Kenny<>{

Good thread, I'll have to test my small filter collection and see how they rate. BTW, a related item, I was cutting apart a PureOne filter last night and had to stop and put it to the side to let it drain, it was still full of oil after sitting (threaded side down) on my oil collection pan for...

I have had a Stihl FS-250 for two years now. I have two words for it-AWESOME and expensive. I say expensive but it has been worth it. It is dang near impossible to bog down in weeds with the line on and I have cut down 6" plus trees with a blade on it (the blade will take care of anything but...

Anybody ever heard of TSI 301? I've used it for years, with excellent success, for lubing my target air pistols and firearms. It seems to have a good following in the target air gun field and that is where I first heard about it. website: http://www.tsi301.com/main.htm I did several searches...

On second thought, I may try the Pennzoil 2-Cycle for air cooled engines. I read online that it has a large following and a good reputation in the ultra-light aircraft market. Kenny <>{

Am now using 2T and will be stocking up as my local Advance still had some the other day. Sorry to hear it has been discontinued. :^( Kenny <>{

BTW I'm now running a larger sized PureOne filter, that new yellow color looks good on a JD!! Thanks again to Bill for posting the size references!! Kenny <>{

I am pretty dang sure this isn't a fram and I tend to agree from what I've heard and seen that engine manufacturers probably tend to change filter suppliers from lot to lot. Here are the pictures I promised of my factory JD-Briggs engine filter (purchased the mower a month ago). I hope you can...

I know what y'all are saying...but...can't the dealer say you modified the factory system when you install a filter where there wasn't one and then deny the claim regardless of whether the filter caused the problem in the first place? Don't get me wrong, I am going to install one on my older...

Will the installation of a magnefine filter be an issue with a vehicle still under the factory warranty? Example: My trans goes bad, still under factory warranty, my dealer sees the filter on a line where there never was a OEM filter. The dealer says the magnefine or its installation caused the...

Was going to post pics last night but didn't realize I had to host them somewhere else to post them here. It's in the process, I'll try to get them posted in the next day or two. FWIW, the JD factory filter I have seems to be a pretty well made filter other than being so short. Maybe a champion...
