What do yall use in your truck??? Im at 36K miles and im debating in wich to go with. I can get the WIX for $14 and the Motorcraft for $20....I will be doin this tomorrow

THANKS

 

I buy my motorcraft parts off rockauto. I think I paid $10?

 

thas a good deal...Ive heard good things about WIX but I would like to stick with OEM stuff

 

I stick with motorcraft, they're about 10 bucks

 

I haven't ever bought a fuel filter for this truck, but WIX makes the oil filters for Motorcraft from what I understand, I wouldn't be surprised if they make the fuel filter, too. I use WIX on all of my vehicles/boats, etc and they have always done well. I'd say go with the WIX if you feel like it, but the Motorcraft isn't a bad unit either.

 

They may have switched, but Purolater did manufacture Motorcraft.

I get the Motorcraft fuel filters at the local O'Rielly's for $13. I change mine about every 15,000 to 20,000 miles. The stuff that comes out is nasty.

 

I put a napa fuel filter on mine that are made by wix and I think I paid 12 bucks for it at the local napa store.

 

As far as I have heard, WIX makes pretty much all the filters they are just relabled or different grades.

 

I have been twisting wrenches for 35 years now and IMHO there is WIX, and then there is everything else and they are crap.

Wix makes many of the filters for NAPA, including the NAPA Gold line of filters.

BTW Fram is the worst filter ever made

 

I use only MotorCraft now for everything, including their Full Syn Oil!!!

 

agreed.. my friend has a yota and the actual filter broke down, clogged the oil pump and blew his motor

 

Fram USED to be great MANY years ago when they actually had the factory in my city! Now they suck so bad!!!

 

Fram blew up my buddies engine in his intrepid

 

Ahh... the great orange can disaster stories.
