So much so i stopped asap found a napa store and picked up one of their napa gold 1324, which I believe is made by wicks. any insite would be a great help.
Interesting post about the difference in oil pressure with Mobil 1. Some time ago I was reading info about Mobil 1 oil filters on the website "Bob is the oil guy". This site is was highly reccomended because of the knowledgable people that post on it. What I remember in regard to Mobil 1 filters was this. They said they didn't flow as well as other filters due to their restrictive nature. I recently went back into that website looking for the info Iam speaking of. I couldn't find it. Other filters were reccomended due to thier flow rates... however... I don't remember which ones they mentioned... will have to keep looking.
