Default OIL FILTER STUDY

Is anyone aware of the posting or website regarding an OIL FILTER STUDY ? Did a search on OIL FILTER STUDY and did not get a match

Had previously seen reference that the Mobil I filter, cost not being considered , was the best filter

.............thanks

There are a number of studies floating around. Here are a few to get you started:

http://minimopar.net/oilfilterstudy.html Russ Knize's study. Probably the most widely known and qouted. Responsible for most anti-Fram sentiment.

http://www.ntpog.org/reviews/filters/filters.shtml Here is another guy that took the 'ol Dremel to a bunch of filters and posted his observations.

http://theoildrop.server101.com/ubb/...c;f=6;t=000513 Still a work in progress by the **** retentives at the bobistheoilguy.com forum. May turn out to be the definitive study when it's finished.

http://www.masterra.net/oil/ I just came across this one the other day. Nice pics.

:cheers:
