84720FourWheel Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 Carquest filters are now made by Champion Labs. Purolator now has a new Boss line as well. We got rid of our cut open filter display, but when we had it, the house economy brand seemed to have better construction than the FRAM Xtra Guard. 1 Quote Link to comment
KoHeartsGPA Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 We got rid of our cut open filter display, but when we had it, the house economy brand seemed to have better construction than the FRAM Xtra Guard. That usually means that the quality dropped and don't want to be exposed.....I demand exposure! Quote Link to comment
84720FourWheel Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Well it's probably in the back somewhere. We needed to make room for the new product so it had to get shelved. The Purolator boss claims that it has 99.x filtration efficiency. And it has a nice metallic black paint scheme. The PureOne filters are changing to "One" and are now blue and non textured rather than yellow and textured. If I can find the old display I'll get some pics. They are all filters for a GM 3800. 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted March 5, 2016 Report Share Posted March 5, 2016 Things change. If this display is a year old they may be cheaper made today. 1 Quote Link to comment

captain720 Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 Matt - Seems a good place to remind everyone the filter that fits most Fords of a few years ago is a proper replacement on L-series engines. WIX number is 51515 I'm pretty sure. I learned that from you in a post you made some time ago. I was a bit skeptical, but my local guy looked it up and every spec in his book was the same - thread size, relief pressure, etc. Except the 51515 is longer, so I would think more filter area, and cheaper than the smaller Datsun size filter. Any parts store in the boonies will have a Ford filter in stock, too. Maybe not so much with the fits-Datsun one. Len My Napa always sells me a Ford filter for Z24s. I always get the gold ones.

DanielC Posted January 24, 2018 Report Share Posted January 24, 2018 The Motorcraft FL1-A filter is the Ford filter. They are at Wal-Mart for about $4.00 each. Quote Link to comment
