slant 6 oil filter REMOVAL

Dan, You are misinformed.

Um, no. Y'see, there's a difference between information and propaganda. This what you've posted is propaganda.

Even a casual comparison by someone who knows nothing about oil filtration clearly shows Fram filters to be physically inferior to several other easily-available brands, so given the choice between "probably adequate" and "better than that" for about the same price, I'll take "better than that". The Wix people did a smart thing: they provided a counter display for jobbers, with a dissected Fram filter next to a dissected Wix filter. Perhaps you've seen this comparison yourself; it makes it very easy to see and compare the Fram's thin metal, flimsy antidrainback and overpressure relief valves, small and cheap filter element, and other design "features" to the much more reasonably built Wix. It's a very simple choice, made even simpler by direct evidence of Fram filters' functional inferiority (rod knock and slow oil light shutoff on startup with Fram filters in base-down applications; no knock and quick light shutoff with a better filter).

Surely you can understand why this little video parade of yours fails: It's in the interest of the Fram people (apparently including you) to present a rosy picture or a slick video of the products they/you make, so they/you put out propaganda, also known as advertising. No sale (no matter how many times you post it); I'll continue to base my opinions, preferences, and recommendations on firsthand observation/comparison and on information from people who don't make or sell any brand of filters.

And there ain't nothin' you can do about it, slick video or no slick video.
