Well ive been running frams, being the fact they are easy to get your hands on. Recently I have been hearing these are horrible oil filters... whats a good brand? Ive heared amazing reviews of purolator filters but I cant find them anywhere! Does anyone know of a good online resaler for oil and filters?

fram lacks the drain plug like other filters have. when you shut your car off the oil is suppose to stay in filter to keep some oil ready for start up. fram filters lack that and hard on engines because of it. "from what a mechanic told me"...he suggest purolaters or napa
