I just changed the filter on my 98 cavalier. The old filter is a fram G7315 and was made in Israel. I wonder how old the filter is...
Are fram products normally made in Israel? Or is this an exception? I thought most auto parts are either made in country of origin where the auto was made, or from the Far East...

That's kind of a funny question. This is the day and age where stuff is made all over the world - why would it surprise you to find any part made in any area of the world? Why are you even worrying about such a thing?
Mike,
I'm not worried at all. I was just curious. I hardly find any auto parts made in Israel, especially low-tech parts.

I agree - usually the exports from Israel are more along the lines of high-tech and more specifically intellectual property rather than commodities.
I have seen many fuel filters from Fram marked from Israel for many years.
I have never paid much attention to it. One would think that the boycott would make this an issue.
