I've just checked the nearby Honda dealer's part store for an oil filter (for '94 Accord) and was surprised to see Honeywell's name on it besides Honda's. Well, coming home I did some online research on Honeywell oil filters and discovered that it is made by their Fram unit. It appears that some guys cut up that filter and were not impressed by its construction, claiming that the prior Filtec was much better. Personally I think that even though the new Honda OEM filters are made by Fram, they are not necessarily the same quality as the orange ones we know if they are made to Honda's exacting specs. Anybody would like to chime in?
