oil filter
I was wondering if anyone knows if premium gaurd oil filters are good filter. And who thay are made by.

Never heard of it. Dodge had an old TSB about some filters that come apart internally and plug up piston cooling ports, oil passages etc. All oil filters are not created equal.
I will not put anything on my truck but a Fleetguard LF3874 |
Thats like fram I wouldnt put a fram on my lawn mower. thay are junk. I always use a wix oil filter. but everything is getting so high now. most people laugh when I tell them what kind of oil I use. I use the cheap oil at walmart. We have a 90 dodge ram dad bought it new. it has over 500,000 miles. thats what we have always put in it. but it hasnt ever been turned up. It has been good oil to me. Cause I change mine every 3000 to 5000 miles and it dont take long to get to that either.

Yes Fram is junk. I would probably consider a Wix though.
The Walmart oil is probably good - Im pretty sure Walmart doesnt make their own oil so its just a repackaged national brand. You are dumping good oil. Put a Fleetguard Stratapore (LF 3874) on there to get better filtration and let the oil go 6000 miles. |
I sure hope those bad filters on the TSB aren't Napa Gold 7620 made by wix...:humm:

whats wrong with the stock mopar filters? i thought they were just a dana/wix filter? never had a problem. as for oil, i use moble one delvec Its 11 dollars a gal and works very well with a quart of lucas. i swear by it and have ran it 200,000 miles with no issues and great oil psi even in the winter @ 20 below :U:0
