As most BITOG members here know, a few members here have donated oil to me for myself, but , more so for people in my apt. complex that are disabled and/or elderly. I live in a complex that is for disabled and/or elderly.
A couple of weeks ago BITOG member bullwinkle PM'ed me and said he had a few oil filters that he would like to donate. Well, they arrived this past Thursday but, I was at a doctors appt. and the mail lady said she would deliver them today, Saturday. When they arrived, I said, "WOW, that's a big box of filters!"
I want to thank you bullwinkle, from the bottom of my heart! The people in my complex, and others around my area that are less fortunate, will be happy as well!
I made a statement in another post about the BITOG members are kind, caring, and compassionate. This is a great example!

The DW-4631 crosses over to a Fram PH5, so look at the "Applications where used" for where the PH5 fits, and that will be your list for the DW-4631.

It will fit most GM 350 V8s. I got a '97 GMC Savana that takes it.
 
you do the oil changes yourself for them? is there any specific part numbers you need for someone's car/truck, that you're missing? If it's in my stash, i can send to you.
 
I have ten quarts 10W30 and ten 5W-30 QSUD,
along with four Fram 3600 and two 3614 equivalents,

Once the weather breaks,
I will head over to a Summer Camp for Kids,
and change the oil in all their lawn equipment...

I can't do any labor because of my disability. My cousin and a few friends do all of the labor. I do the parts running, sit in the vehicles and Armor-All (clean) the interiors, and usually put in some money to buy extra parts or misc. items we need.
Right off hand I can't think of anything we need. Word of us doing this is posted on our community bulletin board. Or, one tenant will tell another tenant, etc.
I really do appreciate your kindness and will remember you in the future if things get to where we can't handle it. So far, 95% of the OCI's we have done were by donations I have received from BITOG members. BITOG members are the best! Thanks to all that have donated and to those that have offered.
