[FordFETruck]

Napa pro select 21085 in use 3.5 years and unknown exact miles 2000-3000 miles. Came off 1999 Dodge Dakota sport 5.2 5 speed 4x4. It sat around a lot looks like it held up well.

Looks good, what oil and filter back in and on? Thank You

An old stock WIX made Supertech ST3614 since my full size FL1A filters didn't clear the frame rail and Mobil 1 Euro 0W40 went back in it. Not happy about putting the small lawnmower filter on, but it'll be fine for this one time. Bummer, there was all kinds of room to run the Ford filter on our old Dodge van with the 318.

Pro Selects remain one of the better economy filters out there.

This one looks fine. There might be some filter changes taking place at Napa so we may start seeing different ones.

Don't like the combo valve in some ProSelect. unless the application has a filter bypass in the filter adapter.

Element looks fine, but not a big fan of the use of a combo valve (any design). As mentioned, since it's been a while since installed, design may have changed. I recently c&p a ProSelect 27356 that had separate dome bypass and silicone adbv. More a Purolator design with stamped flat spring.

Thanks for c&p.

I'm not sure they (WIx/Mann) make them anymore, NAPA has been selling the Premium Guard Proformers instead (which is a perfectly good overpriced low efficiency rock catcher!)

I've used a lot of filters with the combo valve, although all of them have been vertical orientation or slight angle - none horizontally mounted and been fine with them. This is my nephews' truck, I helped him do a bunch of maintenance to it last weekend and the WIX filters I put in the Rockauto cart must have been pretty old stock because they're the old USA Affina Gastonia, NC marked filters that showed up in the order.
