They may have changed OEM's. Last I knew, they were Purolators, but they haven't always been.

 

I believe they still are. The Motorcrafts are just the same size as the Purolator versions now.

 

No Problem.

 

Still Purolator, but who use to make them ? I was under the impression it was always Purolator.

 

I think before Purolator, they may have been made by Champion.

 

I *think* that Champion did make them a while ago, can't remember how long ago though if it they did indeed make them.

 

While in Advance Auto today buying some MotorCraft Full Syn 5w-20, I looked in the oil filter aisle, & scoffed up that last two "Big Old Style". FL-820-S MotorCraft filters! Now I have enough to last me to over the 200K mark in my stash!........(LOL)....

 

There is a help group meeting at my house tonight. New people are welcome, it's only a twelve step process but it is very effective

I'm joking of course, but I don't understand. What up with this size fetish. I put two new ones on last week. I didn't even think about the difference, because it is still going to do the same thing just as well as the longer one did

 

Do we HAVE to go there???????

 

Yea, there's a few old style 820's still on shelves, some Vendors disregarded that big recall after the last 10,000 or so - old style 820's left the plant without any media inside

 

Easier to send 'em out the door than to send 'em back, eh Brew?

 

It's just a sickness that I have!......
