Sloppy manufacturing without engineering oversight and QA results in sloppy products. That's true in any manufacturing senario.Amsoil doesn't have a machine.

Same here. Or, at least trying NOT to! Check out the new Microgard "Select" at O'Reilly Auto. BIG holes in center tube.This is the reason why I'll never use a filter that has louvers.
Those are sweet filters! I have one on my Accord presently, and have a fresh one waiting to go on when I do my next oil changeSame here. Or, at least trying NOT to! Check out the new Microgard "Select" at O'Reilly Auto. BIG holes in center tube.
