    Champ XL Oil Filter Efficiency

    Thanks for the heads up! The ones I received were the correct filters. BUT before giving on a pipe dream I attempted to get a stash of the black Japanese oil filters. Googled and found the Mazda R3N1-14-302 were almost identical. Found them at a supplier that I have ordered from multiple times...

    I cannot guess how much I have spent at Rock Auto. Several thousands, at least an order a month for six - seven years. Never gotten free shipping When I started doing is looking at shipping locations and if something is needed add items that ship from the same warehouse for my stock on hand...

    Napa has Full oil filters at a good price

    Castrol 0w40 has disappeared, suitable replacement?

    I stocked up on the Castrol 0-w40 for the 4.2 40V several years ago. Used all the German and down to three jugs of the Belgium manufactured oil. Noticed it is not on shelf at Walmart since COVID. The 5-w40 looks fine for Houston weather, maybe better this time of year. Does anyone make a 5-w40...
