We used group 7 and classics for years which is a purolater but since purolater went down hill with all the wavy media and tears we switched.
Sometimes we use oem because for a couple of dollars more they look
really nice on a newly rebuilt engine. Since we changed we tried a couple of filter brands and like the pro tech so far
crazyoildude, your position is very interesting with one foot on each side of the Purolator fence here.
Motorcraft is manufactured by Purolator and 2 of the filter failures tabulated in the Google spreadsheet here are Motorcraft.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?...p=sharing#gid=0
Look at rows 35 and 39 in that spreadsheet.
Yet you warn others to stay away from Purolator and Bosch and switched away from Purolator and Group 7 in your business.
Then you avocate buying oem filters like Motorcraft for some perceived flow vs. filtration quality benefit.
Why so serious?
You are chock full of good info, look forward to your posts..
I'd wager that there's only 2 motorcraft filter failers , because most of those users are going through Fords Fast Lane & never touch their filters..
Do you have a Data sheet on Frams ???
