This is almost as good as the sucking of the oil filters in the Walmart aisle thread a while back.

You know you've found a real oil filter "addict" when you see him smelling, licking, blowing and sucking on oil filters in the isle of the automotive parts store.

Can't you just hear the announcement speaker in your Auto parts store.

Oil Filter molester / pervert in aisle 2 !!!

Scratch and sniff?

The only ones I've technically sniffed was the P1 while I was in a Meijer. I only sniffed it because the stench was there right as I opened the box to look. lol

I do like the smell of synthetic oil, transmission fluid, diesel fumes, gear oil, off road diesel fuel, vintage car fumes, and gunpowder.

Yes! I also sniffed my new P1 because I didn't have a choice! The smell just hits you immediately when you take it out of the box.

And here I thought I was the only one....looks like I'm in good company...

FL400s smell fantastic!

I noticed yesterday that GTX has a very unique smell, almost sour. I think oil filters smell terrible but I don't purposely smell them. But when you open a Fram Tough Guard box it hits you in the face.

I thought I was the only one that sniffed oil filters.

I sniff them and suck on them too to see how strong the anti-drain-back valve is.

 

[Cooper]

No. No, I don't. But, now, I think I will. Thanks for the new quark.

 

[Trav]

I never thought about sniffing filters.

If you do not sniff and suck on them bad things can happen.

Marion Barry sniffed plenty of times. I'm in DC also. If you ever want a good auto parts store check out Uptown Auto Parts on Georgia Ave.

Me too ...

Safety first first, never ever huff the Fram extra guard. They don't call it the OCOD for nothing! Tough Guards and Ultras are ok, in moderation...

I only sniff Napa Golds. They smell like a fine white wine.
