This might be a stupid question but I wanted to know if my wix oil filters that i'm using are good for both conventional and sythetic oil because I was at my auto parts store recently and I saw fram has a filter for both oils?
 
Repeat after me.....

It does not matter what oil you use for any filter.

Your WIX could care less. If you see a filter that says it is for a certain brand of oil or type, run away. Do not reward the dumb marketing!

Take care, bill
 
I thought so, but I just wanted to make sure. I have learned something new and I will pass it on to those who like me who before didn't know

thanks
 
Any filter can be used with any oil.

Wix is a GREAT filter. One of the better one out there. Use with no worries!!!!

Odd, the Fram isn't good for conventional or synthetic oils.

Syn brake fluid in my opinion is better. It has better lubrication properties for brake-force distribution units used in many traction control / ABS units... I feel their is a difference and money well spent. It keeps them from corroding and absorbing moisture in the lines... These units are very costly to replace.
 
I have used WIX in the past with synthetics and it worked just as good... Then I found AMSOIL Filters to have the best filtration in my application so I'm using them. Doesn't really matter. UOA proves everything not marketing..

As ThirdeYe noted, it's the 51515 (or NAPA 1515). That's the MotorCraft FL1A replacement, so it fits a BUNCH of things.

BTW - Everyone should have the WIX conversion chart saved in their favorites - http://www.wixfilters.com/filterlookup/index.asp
