Thread: Oil filter options?

i have used purolator on my old DET and the oil filter popped off 2 times on me. I changed to fram and never had a problem

Check out Bob The Oil Guy and you will see most users on that forum recommend Purelator, Wix, Napagold, Bosch, and some OEM filters. I personally use a Bosch because they aren't over the top priced and occasionally paired with a oil & filter combo deal at Autozone.

napa gold , are wix filters from what I have read .....that is what I use

Yup, they just might be cheaper or more available to some people over Wix. I have also heard Bosch is essentially a Purelator.

i usually use mobil1 oil filters with all my cars. Again you can see just from design its a good filter. Never will i ever use Fram filters. Thats a known no no in any book. haha

Havent tried any of the other ones you listed. But mobil 1 filters have been good for me. I always get instant oil pressure on startups (not going off the dummy light either, on an autometer electronic gauge).

i believe the numbers on those are 103 for the earlier model sr's with the long tube on the filter housing, and 108 for the later models and ve's with the shorter thread only tube.

oh and ive heard good things about the Napa gold filters as well. A lot of farming companies in my area being we live off agriculture here, use Napa filters on all their equipment. Again i dont think anyone has had any complaints with them either.

On my 95 DE I use purolater PL14610, no problems and I also and going to use it on my VE

My motor is a 95+ avenir...
But the filter should be the same as any 95 and up sr20
