Can't Believe What I Found Inside This FRAM OIL FILTER!!
In this video I cut open two of Fram's oil filters to see what the difference is. The first filter, the Fram Tough Guard, cost less than $4 and the second, Fram Ultra Synthetic, just under $9. I have to say, I was surprised at what I found inside.
That Fram Ultra Synthetic seems to be, to me, just as good as any others including WIX or Mobil 1 or K&N...

I have found that up to +- 3000 miles paper filters, just filter better than some synthetic media filters. Past 3000 miles I would use the more expensive ones. Several tests I saw showed that paper media is more effective in filtering debris as also better in flow rate than other media. But.....change them frequently.

I stopped using Fram oil filters over 10 years ago. I replaced Fram with Wix, AC-Delco, Mobil 1 and sometimes Bosch. They’re(Fram)not the go to standard anymore, and haven’t been, for some time now.

@elihernandez330 3 года назад

I hope you know that AC Delco filters also use that style and so does Rolls-Royce and Honda. all it does is it seals in Media it doesn't reinforce anything that's what the center core is for. I wouldn't really use Bosch and m1 filters as they are actually known to be crappy and only filter to about 67% at 20 microns or 99% at 30 microns which is really pathetic because the cheapest Fram still does 95% at 20 microns and the silver and gold one do 99% at 20 microns. Your engine doesn't care what brand oil can is on it or what caps seal the media it cares about how clean the actual oil is when it gets pumped around into it. And no frams don't explode a failed oil pump pressure relief valve and hard use does. If I wanted to treat my engine well I would use an oil filter that gets 99% at 20 microns like the silver or gold fram. Why not get the ultra. Costs the same but is metal capped and has the best filtration out of all of them at 20 microns. Can't beat it. And they just released an updated version which is even better at the 5 and 10 micron efficiency so the new ones should be even better yet and they still weren't beat by the other off-the-shelf ones.

@AEVMU Год назад

Studies have shown that even under the worst conditions, in a normally operating engine, essentially no filter will be anywhere near capacity at 5K, and the vast majority of filters can go multiple times more than 10K miles. The data, which was done by a major OEM, is online, although I would have to dig it up. Other than wanting to drain as much oil as possible during an oil change, there is absolutely no point in changing oil filters at 5K. The end cap is also not structural and only serves to help glue the filter media together. Toyota, for example, doesn't even use an end cap.

Nice job on the review. Thank you for recognizing that the cheap Fram is still a fine product for average users who stay on top of maintenance. The Internet makes them look so bad but they are perfectly fine. I must point out that those end caps are not cardboard. The end cap material is similar to the actual filter media. Some OEM Honda and Nissan filters are constructed the same way. As far as the micron rating, both filters are rated at 20 microns but the cheaper one is rated at 95.7% efficiency @ 20 microns. The Ultra is 99% @ 20 microns.

@@thebaron8783 5w-30 is the ideal viscosity for most water cooled engines. By putting in oil so extremely thick you are putting a ton of strain on the oil pump. I would recommend going back to a quality 5w-30, synthetic is preferred but if you're worried about creating an oil leak a conventional oil will be ok depending on the brand. Replace the pcv valve if equipped as a sticking valve will allow too much oil back through the intake. Buy a bg epr kit online and give that a go. You pour in the epr, idle the engine at about 1300-1500 rpms or so for about 30 minutes and that will get the engine nice and hot. Immediately drain the oil and fill with new, and then pour in the moa additive that comes with the epr. The epr kit won't remove sludge but it will do a good job of removing varnish and unsticking piston rings. If that doesn't work take out the spark plugs and soak the cylinders with marvel mystery oil for about 24 hours, with the spark plugs removed crank the engine over to get rid of the excess oil and then reinstall the plugs. You might have to do the marvel mystery oil treatment several times before the piston rings un stick. If you need help you can go online and search something to the effect of "marvel mystery oil piston ring" and you'll see many forum posts of people doing what I mentioned and successfully stopping oil consumption. If you have tried all of the above and you are still facing excessive consumption it's time for a rebuild. Unless your engine is in really bad shape one of those tricks should work, at the very least it should reduce oil consumption to a reasonable level

Re: micron levels....Filter media testing talks about efficiencies at various micron levels, i.e. for material of a certain size (micron), what percentage of that material will get trapped vs not. So, when they claim to be good to a certain micron level, if they don't tell you what efficiency percentage (100% means it catches all at that size), it's kinda bunk. To put it another way, a screen door is a "20 micron" filter; it's just not efficient at it. Also, if the two figures aren't derived using the same testing methods (SAE has a few industry standard tests that are most common), you can't really compare figures.

Folks always pick on Fram. The thing is, if you change your oil when you're supposed to, the brand of filter becomes less of an issue. Most folks do not change the oil when they're supposed to. Some never change it, and then they have no idea why they experience issues at 50,000 miles. And some use low quality oil. Yes, the brand of oil makes a difference too! Ever take apart an engine, or remove valve covers and it looks like a cross between Jello and roofing tar in there... it's not supposed to. It has everything to do with oil change intervals. I've used the cheap, orange Fram filters for more than 30 years. I've used other brands as well. And in 30 years, I've never had an engine fail because of oil issues.

Every oil filter has an efficiency vs micron particle size performance curve. The Fram efficiency rating is per ISO 4548-12, which has been a world wide industry standard to measure filter efficiency for the last 22 years. If an oil filter is rated at 99% @ 20 microns, it will still remove particles smaller than 20 microns, but at a lower efficiency, like for example 70% @ 15 microns, and 50% @ 10 microns.

So anywhere in either of those filters did you see any surface rust? There have been reports of brand new Fram filters straight off the shelf having surface rust inside. Sometimes you can see it on the bypass valve or on the top of the filter plate. Fram has been considered garbage for a long time after we figured out they use cardboard for end plates. If you take apart a used Fram filter you'll see that sometimes that adhesive has failed and the endplate isn't attached anymore leaking unfiltered oil through into the clean side of the filter. They've known about it for a long time but don't want to change the design. Wix/Napa is now the go to with 21-23 micron at 99% efficiency rating for 32 grams of dirt. Their XP version is only 32-35 micron at 99% due to using synthetic media that will allow a longer oil change interval (you sacrifice some efficiency for a longer oci). A lot of channels have oil filter reviews, we've seen the Wix being better quality over all. I'd like to see you do a side by side review/comparison next to the filters you just cut open.

Most engine wear damage iresults from wear particles between 5-20 microns so your normal full flow filters don't do a great deal of protection. Best to also fit a bypass filter system which filters in the range of 1-2 microns which is receiving only around 10% of the oil flow at any moment.

Hate to say it Jimmy... Ferris might end up taking over the show. lol It's nice to see her do a few cameos from time to time. She keeps you in check from the mechanic rants. Keep it up buddy.

Too much repetition. If you don’t have anything else to say then make the video shorter. Fram has been compared to other makes on other channels much more scientifically so for me this video was a waste of my time, not to mention that it came to a flawed conclusion which was not based on any empirical knowledge.

Hi Jimmy, I think "Amsoil" oil filters, filter down to five microns. If you want cleaner oil. Also If you want super clean oil Amsoil also sells sub micron bypass add on filters, those filter down to like 1/2 micron. There are people that just change the filter and the bypass filter and send a tiny sample of their oil out to a lab for Chemical Spectrographic oil analysis. I Know of people that have gone 100,000 miles + with Amsoil Oil doing this with constant positive analysis results

They say TWENTY microns

I use K&N Silver Performance Oil Filter and Pennzoil Platinum High Mileage Full Synthetic 5W - 30. I change my oul every 3000 regardless. I have a 2000 Toyota Camry LE 4 cylinder. My air filter is also K&N. Nothing but the best for my Camry.

6:45 The little smile she puts on when Jimmy says "not racing it up & down the streets everyday". Makes me believe he needs to install a "premium" race ready filter and get some high quality oil for his wife.

I don't think Fram has kept pace with the improvements as well as other brands have. I stopped using them about 10 years ago and favor Toyota brand filters for my Tacoma and Purolator One for my other autos using synthetic oil. Ferris did a great job! Her input was timely and relevant. She was a great addition to this video.

I like this video with the two of you, it's nice to see you guys doing videos together. That's really neat and sweet that you and your wife are Youtubing together.

I used both and I never had a problem. I now used the ultra synthetic for extra protection since I changed my oil every 10,000 mi or a year.. I would use the orange filter if I change my oil every 7,000 miles but that's how far I'll go with the orange filter the gold filter I'll go up to 10,000 Miles

@jasonreid1332 3 года назад

I used Fram for years without any problems. But, always used with conventional oil and maximum would run for 1 year or 5k. My current toyota calls for change intervals of 10K. Personally I would not run the Fram EG beyond 5K, at somepoint that cardboard will no longer support the filter media and it will collapse. For the longer change intervals I've switched to Baldwin, Wix, and Fram ultra synthetic along with synthetic oil.

On the flip side, Fram EG has lesser resistance to oil flow in colder temperatures compared to Fram Ultra.

@johndeerefan725 Год назад

We always used Fram Extra Guard (orange filters) and we never had issues and we change the filter and the oil every 3,000 miles on all our vehicles.

@LeewardStudios 3 года назад

As the man said, oil is cheap engines are expensive. Spend the extra $4 bucks and NEVER trust the idiots who tell you to go 10,000 miles on oil changes. I wholeheartedly agree 5,000 mile changes.

Good little video Jimmy and yea yall should do some more videos together its cool.

@tylerexperience8704 3 года назад

I would love to see a 3,000 mile oil change intervals with these filters!

@jamesvw769 3 года назад

Relax it would be fine.

@juanbohorquez8922 2 года назад

The ultra is recommended for synthetic high detergency oil with a detergent pack of 2000 ppm average

Ps... Just ordered an ultra for my toy. Had an orange can come apart on an old hunting rig years ago. Molasses oil. Can not remember if I gave it a motor flush because of the thick black strap. Did the filter get bounced apart, or did the flush dissolve the paper like ends. The black oil at 3000 miles tells me the orange cans are inferior quality.
