Nothin' but M-O-T-O-R-C-R-A-F-T filters for my truck. And Valvoline Durablend 5W-30 semi/syn oil.

 

Its nothing but Mobil 1 oil and filters for me!

 

Motorcraft oil filter is really a Purolater...

NAPA Gold is made by Wix...Napa Silver is a Fram...

Fram has plastic antidrain valves beware!!!!

Fram Tough Guard has a metal antidrain valve, much better...

Mobil is awesome, but pricy...ya get what ya pay for...

AC Delco has graded out well as a solid filter through the years...

just a summary of the stuff I read on the net....

 

motorcraft here. quick question, does anyone know if the '02 5.4 uses the fl820s filter like the '01 and prev. i would assume it does but not sure. might have to call dealer.

 

Just got back from NAPA.....bought 2 NAPA Gold filters for the wifes car.

Says right on the box, NAPA Gold filter made by WIX for NAPA

or you can go with Fram, "pay a little now, and a LOT later"

 

MOTORCRAFT BABY! Just like the dealer!, Can;t find Motorcraft Oil easily around here though....Quaker State 5w30 for me, hey i'm a Pennsylvania guy!

 

WIX and Castrol 5w-20 @ 0.99/cents qt.
