I recently purchased an oil filter cutting tool because I wanted to inspect the condition of the Purolator Pure One oil filter I used on my truck with Royal Purple 5w-30. I used the filter for 6,000 miles which is well within its advertised life span. Although the integrity of the filter appeared to be intact I have to say I am disappointed with the quality of the construction. I have seen other videos where these filters have been dissected and they looked really well made which is what motivated me to try the Pure One. I have two major complaints about my filter upon inspection. First, in other videos I have seen of the filters they opened up showed that the filter media started and ended with a metal crimp which is what I prefer, but the filter I had was only glued together. Second, the spacing of the filter media was very inconsistent with several wide gaps. At first I thought this was due to the media being saturated and manipulated by flowing oil during use, but once I cleaned the old oil away I discovered it was due to the position in which the media was bonded to the metal end caps during manufacture

I recently put in the Purolator Boss filter. WOW. Amazing product it is. I have a 1986 Yugo GV with a 1.1 L, carburetor , high compression engine and always put 10w-40 Castrol GTX conventional oil . I always remembered their commercials on how they were engineered the oil for smaller engines like my car. Their works were always conceiving when you see the intense heat being build up on the combustion chambers and then they broke down. Did one amazing job getting the viewers attention that's for sure. Then I add the Purolator Boss filter to maximize engine protection, boost it's efficiency, extreme reliability in filtering, and the satisfaction rate on how it works. Got to say it was an excellent combination that I recommend for your older model high compression motors. It runs like it's off the dealerships parking lot. Thank you for sharing this video with us. It made me want to buy the BOSS filter and boy, I'm never going to buy anything else until Purolator outdoes itself on developing another advance version to succeed it.

5:40 found an error, the bypass valve doesn’t open at all just because the media is clogged, that’s not how that works. Bypass valve on a oil filter is designed to open under a specified pressure to prevent the starvation of oil. Most Subaru and smaller high performance engines require 23-26 psi filters, and other engines tends to run between 12-18psi filters. So that’s why it’s important to mention each oil’s bypass pressure in order to understand if the oil will work with a certain car’s spec. This bypass valve is not performance related, but more designed for certain specifications. I believe older PureOne are only rated for 16psi while the new Purolators are 20-30psi. So for engines designed to use 12-18psi, this wouldn’t be the right filters to use because it may potentially starve the engine of oil. And vice versa, if you put a KNN oil filter in a Subaru WRX sti, it’s not going to filter anything for roughly 6-8psi range because Subarus are specified to use a much higher bypass pressure filter and the KNN bypass valve will be opened all the time once the engine operates at a pressure pass its limit.

One interesting fact left untold is all three filters have the bypass valve located at the bottom of the filter which is obviously not the ideal location. Many oil filters have the bypass valve located at the top of the oil filter to keep contaminants from reaching the engine during periods when the bypass is open.

The anti-drainback valve really isn't that important if your filter is spun-on upside down (as most are), or spun somewhat upside down at an angle. The oil will naturally stay in the filter due to gravity. So the anti-drainback valve is only really important if you filter is spun on from the top of the motor or on the side but higher-up. That being said, the Purolator is a very good filter for the money and I also believe they make the Motorcraft filters for Ford and those are very good filters as well.

You missed one important detail: Is the bypass relief valve using a "soft seat" or a "hard seat." The former refers to when an elastomer gasket-insert is used between the poppet and the plate to form a tight seal so that oil does not seep through when the valve is closed. A "hard seat" is an inferior metal-on-metal seal that always leaks to a certain degree allowing oil to bypass the filter element.

I love Purolator classic, been using them for many years. The classic has 96% filtration but boss is 98%. The classic is less restrictive because standard oil thickens over time, whereas synthetic does not. I run the classic filter with mobil1 for 8-10,000 miles no problem. My concern is reduced oil flow and back pressure on the oil pump. Just know that as a filter fills with dirt, it actually filters better. If a synthetic filter gets clogged, the oil bypasses the filter completely. 10,000 miles max for my cars. Combustion engines create dirty oil regardless. Best practice is to replace the filter after 10,000. Oil change is $35 vs an engine costing $15,000
@hoarybat615 жыл бұрын
One point not made correct me if I'm wrong, is that the Boss filter bottom hole floor is concaved (recessed) which allows a little more space between the filter floor and where it meets the car. This may allow optimum oil flow with the added space. IDK let me know what ya think.

First.. No question that Purolator makes great filters. However, If you think about it, the mileage ratings are just for reference. The number of miles traveled vs the volume of oil being pushed through the filter is impossible to accurately predict due to different GPM ratings between vehicle oil pump, moving vs idling ratios, etc. Of course, the higher the "mileage rating" the longer lasting the filter may be, BUT my vehicle's engine run time & oil volume flow over a 10k mile period will likely be significantly different than yours. (Not to mention it's a real bad idea to go beyond 5k miles between oil & filter changes on the typical daily driver vehicle.)

Exactly my thought. A low-end or no-name oil filter is good for 5000 miles. No more. If you run dino or semi oil and you have a clean engine, you don't need a pricier filter as long as your oil change interval is under 5000 miles. I have never had an engine that requires synthetic, but my thought is, use a low-end synthetic and change it more often, maybe even every 4000 miles. The price differential between dino, semi and low-end synthetic has just about disappeared. In fact, at this point all oil is semisynthetic to a degree because the carrier oil the additives come in is synthetic.

What many videos do not show is how Motorcraft Filters are one of only few companies using a thread end bypass, Wix, Napa, and Royal Purple all had outstanding design and when they got bought out, the designs changed and in my opinion they are a cheap design. No longer made with highest quality. Royal Purple Filters, Napa Gold and Wix have all changed from a nice steel base plate with thread end bypass, Silicone ADBV, evenly spaced holes and steel coil spring, solid canister casing. It would be interesting comparison how they have changed. Now Purolator is better than those. I currently use Motorcraft although I know they use a leaf spring and the Purolator is a decent design, the Boss is nice and it shows filter media is better than Motorcraft. Not a fan of dome end bypass. Many new oil filters displayed in videos don't even come close to what RP and Napa Wix used to be years ago. The new ACDelco E core is an embarrassment. Why do these companies think they can change a proven design and still have a loyal following for a cheaper product. They must think customers don't notice. I expected K and N to be higher quality, the dome end bypass design is cheap and does not look built with durability.

I'm no rocket surgeon but just saying, polyester is the definition of a synthetic material. Byproducts from oil and gas production polymerized....
@CarsNToys6 жыл бұрын
Among all filters they categorize media via polyester, cellulose, a blend or synthetic. Just keeping things simple.

to me Purolator One is the best oil filter ever made I change the oil and filter every three months or every three k miles never let me down!!!

Can I use the red filter for full synthetic with a 3k mile oil change? I know it's not the greatest, but I usually do 3k mile oil changes anyway. Doesn't seem like it'll hurt, thoughts?

I currently have a Wix XP and a Purolator Boss filters. I am going to run Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w-30 engine oil. Any comments on what filter is "better" ?
@bobby19706 жыл бұрын
Stepside1986 - You picked the perfect oil, which is what I also use. There's no better oil than that. However, the filter I use is the Mobil 1 Extended Performance. My second choice would be a Wix XP.

you say CLASSIC for conventional/high mileage and ONE for high mileage and BOSS for full synthetic. Does this mean I shouldn't use ONE or BOSS for conventional?
@arthursmith6433 жыл бұрын
Looks like the classic filter is the same as the ONE except for silicone ADBV. I use the classic because I change my oil every 2500-3000 miles. That's around the mileage I can't see my oil dip stick level lines through the oil. The oil has more life but not up to my standards. My mechanic burns the old oil for heat so he gets the old oil.

After working for PepBoys for almost 2 years I've put these on a ton of cars. They seem to be some great quality filters and from all the crappy Fram filters that I've had to fight with to take off, these are much more reliable. We even have a line of filters called PurolatorTech which is what the service side uses for the basic oil filter. If you could get your hands on one and compare it to the other three it would be appreciated because I've always wanted to see their composition.

I have a good idea a anti drain back red silicone washer with a 3-5 psi coil spring under it for the anti drain back system.

Good video. However, "rubber" is not a definitive description. It usually implies Natural Rubber which typically has no chemical resistance to motor oils. Synthetic elastomers vary greatly in chemical resistance. Some are very chemical resistant to motor oil other are not. Some have chemical resistance to motor as good as silicone formulations and may have better physical properties. Fluoroelastomers have very good oil resistance and high temp ratiings and they are usually black. So it is best to check with the mfg of the filter to determine the exact elastomer.

How does a filter know how many miles you drive on it. Pleat area is what matters and micron rating.
