Re: What oil filter?

I didn't notice any difference, so I tried an Amsoil (EA011) the most recent fill and didn't notice a difference there either. I'll probably just go with the Motorcraft FL-820S this summer when I change the oil. I just want a consistent quality built filter and I feel like Amsoil, Mobil 1, and Motorcraft will meet that need compared to others out there.
unless you're doing an oil analysis after each change I don't think you're going to "see" a difference, especially not in a single change interval. It would be one of those things over the life of the vehicle wear may end up being accelerated or you have a filter failure and lose a motor.
