#494489 Sonny (User) Ride hard, Die fast Junior Boarder Posts: 106 Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   While changing oil on a Mazda Protege (1.5) I noticed that the filter was the same size threads and rubber gasket as the Super Tech 7317. It is a little shorter though. I bought it at a local independent parts house, says Bumper to Bumper on the ticket and the oil filter is a Parts Master brand, part #61365. $3.88 and made in the U.S. Anyone have any experience with these?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #494494 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 5788 Re:Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   ...Bumper to Bumper on the ticket and the oil filter is a Parts Master brand, part #61365. $3.88 Add to the list?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #494496 Roger7886 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1419 Re:Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   I've seen those on cars in my shop that had their oil changed at a jiffy lube if that tells you anything... Not trying to start a debate on oil filters again, but I'll stick with my wix filters on the bike, and motorcraft on the cars, (which I believe is made by wix too, but not for sure) just out of personal preference.   Logged     I was born An AR in my hands Behind the gun Ill make my final stand And thats why they call me Bad Company   The administrator has disabled public write access. #494521 massagemick@yahoo.com (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 93 Re:Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   Already I miss SuperTech. I reckon I'll go to Wix when I run out of ST.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #494534 brown91redcam (User) Another Day In the Wind Platinum Boarder Posts: 2083 Re:Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   I have been using the wix for a while its what my local parts store has in stock   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #494540 Rev.

They are completely interchangeable. Now that Wal*Mart no longer sells their own ST, I guess I'm going to have to go with another brand. From a Consumer Reports test years ago, the WIX was the best at that time, and I'm pretty certain they're still real good. I still have a quite a stock of ST's on the shelf... guess I won't be changing brand anytime soon!   Logged     Sig Pic deleted - larger than 450 pixels and 50 kb   The administrator has disabled public write access. #494762 Blackroadie (User) Sometimes I wish you were a pinata !

I'm not going to use it, having the woman pick up a Fram 6017A because it's in stock. Anybody else have issues with the Bosch filter? Maybe just a crappy thread on the filter I got.   Logged     Four wheels move the body.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1745 Re:Oil Filter Question 12 Months ago   PartsMaster is O'Reillys low cost filter that is supposed to be an entry level filter made by WIX. We've used 100's of them on used cars with no issues. They do seem to be a good filter. The 61365 (and the longer 61356) are listed to fit all the later Nissans, Honda cars, various motorcycles and tractors. I did notice that Wix has changed their catalog lately and they have a different number for Nissans now. When I worked for a Nissan dealer I used Nissan filters om my bikes. Now I'm at a Honda dealer but I refuse to use a Honda filter because most are made by Honeywell which is Frams parent company. I would be using the PartsMaster on my bike if I hadn't bought a bunch of new SuperTech 7317's at a salvage store for a buck each.   Logged     2006 Midnight   The administrator has disabled public write access.
