Odd filter issue

Probably so. But I was concerned that I could easily open some with my lungs but not the Pro-Tec models that I purchased.


Doesn't matter if some filter ADBVs react differently when sucking - your lungs are super weak compared to a PD oil pump ... only thing that matters is the 'blow test'.
 
Hello. Sucking on an oil filter will allow air to travel through the filter media. I sure hope this doesn't start to be a trend in the aisle at Napa.
When I worked for a NAPA store 1984-85 we had a couple of customers blow and suck on the oil filters they were buying. I had someone once ask for a another one, as the one I originally got for them failed their test. The owner said just put that other filter back in stock. No I didn't wipe it off either.
Would you blow and suck on an oil filter someone else already did it to?
 
Definitely a new one for me. Glue sniffing has been replaced by filter sucking and blowing. Lol
