  • Fairdeal - question on Fram oil filter

    Fairdeal:
    How did you determine the Fram filter was a match for your F225?

    Thanks

    need to find out if the filter needs to have a check valve in it to keep the filter from draining when motor is turned off,
    some do, from what I have heard

      just painstaking Googling of the details of each manufacturer's spec

      IMO the "critical" parameters are dimensions -
      obviously the canister has to fit, the thread size and gasket has to match

      anti-drain back valve and bypass valve are pretty standard
      although - IMO - not critical anyway - in my engine

      nor do I give much thought to the "filter media";

      I "baby" the engine, but change the oil (and filter) anyway every 100 hours -
      so I don't figure the oil filter has much work to do

      and I'm old enough to remember when there were many autos on the road
      that did not even have an oil filter....
