Russ -
No, I meant air filter; I was being somewhat facetious. I've already
decided to go with the Wix oil filter.
And I agree with you about the air filters. The element and construction is
right out there in the open. But I can't bring myself to send money to a
company that will sell me an oil filter so shoddily constructed that it
could cause damage to my engine. And who figures they can get away with it
because I can't see the internals.
What a pain.
