I picked up a few Federal-Mogul Champion oil filters on clearance at Rock Auto. I saw on another thread where some folks were less than impressed with the quality of the filter so I decided to cut open the two different filters I had purchased. I was surprised to find rust on the internal part of the can where the leaf spring came into contact with the inner part of the can housing. At first I thought it may be left over glue residue but on further inspection I confirmed it is rust. Theoretically the filter should catch this before it gets into the engine but now I'm hesitant to run them. What do you think, run them or ditch them?
