I made a quick googly moogly for Fram oil filters and:
After 2000 miles. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...i/DSC02420.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...i/DSC02419.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...i/DSC02417.jpg Sorry but my OEM filter looked much more pristine after 2000 miles of use. And there was no cardboard either. |

I always heard that Pennsoil has a decent amount of parafin wax? I always stayed away form Penn.
Ive only recently started using valvoline high milage on the caprice recently. I did notice, oddly enough, a smoother idling car. I was given some oil after Sears switched form Castrol to Valvoline, and was impressed. So when we have the 5 qts and filter with teh HM Valvoline. Problem is, the filter is a Fram Tough Guard. I saw that it got decent ratings, but I miss my PureONE filters. |
meh ive noticed that a lot of pennzoil ive drained out of cars looks horrible compared to most other brands ive seen. i cant quote scientific facts just the fact that ive seen all types of garbage drain out of motors that was ran on pennzoil for a length of time.

Pennzoil Platinum is totally different than regular old pennzoil. Anyone who trashes it should know what they are talking about before they throw it under the bus. It is a fully synthetic motor oil. It meets new car standards for VW, Porsche, Honda/Acura, and BMW. It is not the regular old $.99/quart pennzoil you would get at wal-mart. It's actually pretty pricey. Even regular pennzoil should be fine for an every day car. Just because its not purple doesn't mean its crap. If you get your oil changed at a shop, the shop oil is usually something along the lines of pennzoil 10w30 or quaker state. And those cars will absolutely run just fine for a long time.
Also, just because an oil looks dirtier when it comes out of the crankcase does not mean it is a bad oil...it means it was doing its job. Color only shows the amount of dirt that has been trapped in the oil. The only thing color is good for is showing whether the oil is new or used. |
