Yes, I bought a lot of them on clearance. Fram unfortunately has a bad name for some reason but even their basic filters are fine with the extra guard and tough guard being very well built. At the end of the day I’d say that even budget proline filters from Walmart will get the job done for at least 5000 miles. It’s very rare for a filter to fail anyway.

You never mention what to do with the second oil fill. Do I start my engine and run it for a few minutes or do I just drain the second oil fill right away? If I run the engine, for how long? Do I change the oil filter each time?
@OwenLucasКүн бұрын
You can run it on the cheap oil for a few minutes, you want it to circulate.

You can clean your piston rings by doing a piston soak. LM is for removing engine sludge.

This would be a lot faster doing a single short run with 50/50 ATF and oil for a flush.
@OwenLucas15 күн бұрын
I’ve heard people add a little ATF before but going 50/50 might be too much h. It would really break down the lubrication properties of the engine oil. I know someone who blew up their engine just adding a quart of ATF into a 5qt sump.

So much good oil wasted here. Engine flushes are pointless if you're changing the oil regularly and if you have serious sludge buildup, you're just asking to blow your engine by clogging the oil pickup doing a flush.
