    Sharing Purolator Classic rebranded information.

    I appreciate your information, and it is very interesting. Sir, you are assuming of course that everyone has access to all brands of filters too include Purolator. Actually, in some of the southern and southwestern states this is not the case. Living in southern Oklahoma for example, Purolator...

    Sharing Purolator Classic rebranded information.

    We know that they are not changing the media and internals on the Purolator Classic L24011 vs the Purolator Group 7 V4011 filters, then I would see no reason that they would change for the others rebrands {IMHO}. Why would they? I think they are all going down the same assembly line and painting...

    Sharing Purolator Classic rebranded information.

    Two years ago, I contacted Katrina S. Hull concerning rebranded Purolator filters and enquired if they are the same internally? Two weeks ago, I contacted Pam Warner to confirm if there have been any changes over the past two-years! After reading Purolator’s replies, both times, this should be...

    Registered: 07/23/09 Posts: 38 Loc: Oklahoma, USA It does look like a Motorcraft and a Purolator;since Bosch owns Purolator and what I understand are they one's calling the shots. I have heard people say that Purolator owns Bosch, whereas they are 180 degrees off. I would direct any...

    shelf life of a filter & what does the A mean?

    One last thing, you know as well as I do there are a lot of filters sitting in auto part stores waiting to be sold that are older than 5 years. I will remove the seals, if they are not cracked, chipped or physically falling apart, I will probably try them....Being stored in a cool dry place out...

    I just received this email this morning. Presetly, I am using some Purolators, in a case of 12, which are 10 years old. I have used 5 or 6 of them with any woes. I have one on my car as I speak. I also have a Fram PH3387A made by Bendix in about 1986... I will pass on using it, but it still...

    shelf life of a filter & what does the A mean?

    I sent an Email to Hastings Oil Filter Company asking what does the 'A' stand for in some of their older filters. I have a couple CF51s' in my garage, in a dry storage. I thought perhaps the 'A' designator stood for ADBV? I told them that I might keep these around and use someday... Here is what...

    Information from Purolator on Group 7 oil filters

    Yes sir,they evidently are the same with just different paint, only. I have seen them on Ebay from time to time, next to nothing on price. Usually,they are sold cheaper because they are sold in bulk as a jobber part. One day, I was bumping around reading about Bosch/Purolator and their goals and...
