    Motorcraft Filter Specifications

    OK. I know where I need to go at Ford to get the exact specs, so I will have to work on that now. I know the exact catalog and the page even. That and some more information was possible due to a very nice and informative gentleman at Purolator talking with me for about 15 minutes on the phone...

    ROUSH Air Filter- What the heck is it?

    OK. I've had debates before with other ROUSH owners as to what type of filter the ROUSH one actually is. Most say K&N. Roush says it is similar to the K&N, but works just as well or better, it does not need to be oiled, and a K&N "could" be used to replace it, but may not work as well. It is a...

    Having trouble finding a K&N replacement

    I was looking into the Amsoil air filters to replace the air filter on my Roush. Many say it is a K&N, but it is actually a non-oiled filter, gray in color. However, there is a K&N number with the correct dimensions of the filter. Is it actually a K&N? I don't think so, but anyways, I couldn't...

    2003 Dodge Neon Oil Talk

    Alright fellas! One more thread for the day. The car in question is my 2003 Dodge Neon SE. It has the 2.0L SOHC non-H.O. engine, and currently sits a bit under 102,000 miles. For the past 3 or 4 oil changes, it has been Pennzoil Platinum with a Fram Xtended Guard for 6,000 miles. I typically put...

    Purolator PureOne for 1-Year OCI?

    I tried searching these forums yet again, but have come up empty handed. I've had a similar discussion before about paper filters lasting for a year long OCI, but I need to revisit this as the 1 year mark is coming up. I didn't feel quite comfortable leaving the Motorcraft filter on there for a...

    2010 Ford F150 Filter Question

    A friend has a 2010 F150 with the 5.4L engine. The manual says to use a Motorcraft FL820, not an FL820S, though. He said he cross-referenced the Purolator PureOne number to 24651, as did I. He said that the shop could not get either the 820S or the PureOne to screw on. He went and found a Mobil...

    Roush Mustang Detailed

    My new job has been keeping my plenty busy since I started, which is good. However, it has left me with little extra time to keep the cars clean. I could not and still can not remember the last time I washed this car, let alone the last time I waxed it. I had two days off, and devoted the...

    SuperTech HD30 vs. SuperTech Universal 30W

    It has been awhile since I have made it over to these parts. I finally found a job and have been working my butt off since I started... The truck is needing an oil change. Been about 6 months or so, some water may have gotten into the oil as well, but can't decide what to go with. The HD30 is...

    How is ZDDP calculated?

    How is the ZDDP number calculated for oils? For example, simply because there is a chart readily available... From the Mobil 1 FAQs: Quote: Mobil 1 0W-40 already contains a higher level of ZDDP (1000 ppm) that could benefit your flat tappet engine. We also have a Mobil 1 High Mileage 10W-40...

    Time limit to sned in collected oil?

    I really would like to perform a UOA for my Neon on the upcoming oil change (most likely within the next 2 says), but being unemployed right now, I can't justify spending money on a UOA. If I collect the oil in the correct manner, will it still be fine to send in later? I don't see why it...

    How "short" is a short drive?

    All of the goodies are here: the SSO oil and EaO filter and the Blackstone Lab Kit. I do have a question about one thing I am not sure if I should note or not. I am curious about how short the drive can be to actually dilute the oil with fuel? Every now and then, I simply turn the car on, wait...

    Motorcraft FL820S and Amsoil EaO11 Capacities

    Been awhile since I've seen an FL820S, but the Amsoil filter looks smaller? Being a direct replacement though, I'd suspect they both hold the same amount? Anyone know by any chance?

    Roush "K&N" vs. Amsoil EaAU4070 Air Filter

    5W20 vs. 0W20 and some other questions...

    Hi all. New to the forums, but not the site. I have a 2002 Roush Mustang Stage 2 with approx. 42,250 miles on it and have always used the Motorcraft oil filter. At about 23-24,000 miles, I went from the Motorcraft Syn-Blend to Amsoil 5W20 XL for one oil change. I then switched to Royal Purple...
