    "Is bigger better"?

    I like larger filters, but I'll leave that question for others to answer. If you would like a longer filter, Wix 51036 appears to identical except that it is almost 1.5 inches longer. You can cross reference to other brands.

    high and low beams on at the same time.

    I did this on my saturn with a custom harness. Not only do the lows stay on with the highs, but they are both brighter due to less voltage being lost in the wiring.

    Originally Posted By: PT1 What is the cold temp pump spec for the 5w30 Torquepower? Nevermind I found it. The pour point is -33F so I am all good. It meets GM6094 so as far as I am concerned it's fine. Yep, -33C. The Q Horsepower and PP are -45C for 5W-30.

    QUAKER STATE Q TORQUEPOWER?? ANYBODY

    Looking at the specs, it appears the the Q Horsepower is very close to PP. The cold weather performance is not nearly as good with the Torquepower. But I'll be looking for the sales, however. I would certainly use it at those kind of prices.
