Has anyone used the WIX filters for either oil or fuel? I'm about due for an oil change and thought that I might give one a shot. Any opinions out there on these?

Don't know about fuel but I've been using Wix oil filters for the last few years after I saw a favorable report in the ZR1.net oil filter testing.

What weight oil are you running? It would seem that the filter is a fixed resistance.

I didn't know that!

Oops... quoted the wrong message. I didn't know that WIX = AC-DELCO.

I know that WIX filters are used in a lot of heavy equipment apps like Catepillars...

WIX filters are a good high quality filter, in fact I think WIX is a division of Dana under the Dana Corporation.

I do the same, use the NAPA Wix oil filters, I spray mine black just for fun.

It looks like the BOSCH and Mobil1 filters are made by the same manufacturer! Only the Mobil1 costs 2x! I'm heavily considering ditching Mobil1 all together and moving to the German Castrol for oil.
