mobil 1 filter

See the oil filter tests here->

My Wal-Mart carries Motorcraft filters. Might save you a trip.

Most major brand filter today are pretty good and if you go to Advance Auto their brand is made by Fram so you are actually getting a Fram Wear guard filter (which are preety good) when you buy one of theirs.

Are you crazy??? Fram filters are rated the worst by just about everybody.

I used a Mobil 1 filter in my 02 Superduty Triton V10 but I noticed I got a lot of valvetrain noise when starting cold. Maybe a different drainback valve design that didn't seal well. Switched to Motorcraft filter and no problems. Always ran 5w30 Mobil 1.

I notice that Mobil 1 is now available in 5w20, which is what Ford recommends, I wonder if after using 5w30 for 60K miles, would it be OK to switch? I am thinking probably not...

Oh please, you don't believe their ads, do you? Fram is about the worst you can buy. Just do a search with Google...

Yea, some people cut them open and make judgements based on their observations of construction and materials. They don't flow test or measure their filtering efficiency. Don't get me wrong, Fram is as cheaply made as they can make them, but they still perform well enough to meet manufacturer's specs.
