Re: Oil Pressure Hits Zero And Stays There- JGC '96
Hi Jeff,
My 350,000 on my '78 Bronco and 300,000 miles on my '89 Thunderbird
are on Fram filters and Pennzoil. I did switch to their more expensive
filters when I found one with a loose element on an oil change:

I'm hardly a troll... guess I misunderstood this comment from you, is
this some kind of complement I was not previously familiar with?

Re: Oil Pressure Hits Zero And Stays There- JGC '96
I'd be interested in knowing what engine failure you blame on Fram.
They definitely were the best when spin-ons first appeared in the mid
fifties, their base plate was thicker, enough never to blow off as many
did. Also made them very hard to chisel off if over tightened.

That report isn't exactly complementary is it? What did you switch to?
