[QUOTE="vvvvvvv, post: 1904882, member: 5151"] Relatively small (less surface area) Cardboard ends Rubber drainback valve (better make sure to change every 3K AND never run hot) I cut open two Fram filters that both had ~5K miles on them. Both filter cartridges were still soaked after sitting, which tells me they aren't very efficient (grab the oil, too). The Wix filters drained off just fine. Yeah, I'm a Wix/Quaker State guy. I was kind of proud when I tore down the motor in my 2009 F-150 with 72K miles - she was clean as a new one. [/QUOTE]
