UPF-44 Ultragold :seeya
:iagree: Sure they may be a couple bucks more and maybe only a little better than the others but why not get the best for our babies :cheers:

For last 3 yrs, I have been using AcDelco UPF44 and they are getting little too expensive for me and I am not sure if they are THAT much better than other filtes 1/2 their price. What do you guys use?
So you mean your tired of me stealing all your spare filters when your passed out from a late night of partying? :skep: UPF 44, every 2500 miles. :thumbs:

Just for balance, I'll report that I use a PF44 and change it per the service interval.

:iagree: and right now you can get the PF-44 for less than $2.00 with the K-Mart going out of business sales.

An other happy user : AC DELCO UPF44, due to filtration Specs.

6-Pack by THELAPD.com.........CHEAP insurance. Just give Shawn a call.

Rest of lubrication, from bumper to bumper : RED LINE USA.

Imagine, we are installed on the other side of the Ocean, so stocking up IS an issue. But I like to go this li'l Extra Mile for this wonderful car. She gives us so many happy hours, and to compensate, I would never hesitate to give her back all the stuff she is asking for...........

UPF-44 Ultragold :thumbs:
The UPF-44s are the best filter for the application.
A year ago I bought two cases of filters at $8 each plus shipping.
I guess I have a life time supply. :rolleyes:

Default Check this out

I just got this email and wanted to pass it along.
Might help, might not ?

Advanced Motor Oil Training Center is planning to offer a new lubrication and filtration resource website, and I'm interested in your opinion. So, I am administering a very short survey to those who have previously downloaded my ebook "The Motor Oil Bible" and might be interested in this new site.

Your input will help me create a website that will best serve your needs and will offer you the services and information you want. I estimate that it will take you approximately 2 minutes to complete the survey.

The survey is located at the following website address. You can either use the hyperlink below, or cut and paste the entire URL into your browser.
http://www.HyperTracker.com/go/klawncare/survey/

I would appreciate a response by March 7th, 2003, if possible. Again, the survey should take only a few minutes and requires no typing on your part (6 multiple choice type questions). Your answers to these questions are most important, and will be kept confidential (used only for the purposes of this project) and anonymous.

Sincerely,

Michael Kaufman
