Flo Stainless oil filter
Is the flo stainless oil filter worth it? Any other makes similar to the flo that can be recommended?
I did the search but can't find what I was looking for!

I got one as a present and have been using it for 7 years. From what I read after looking into it, factory is better filtration. There seems to be some mixed feelings about it..... I do change my oil every 1000 or so miles.

Thanks. My Thoughts was more or less the same. So at this stage there is no improvement on the stainless filters then. This is too dangerous to take a chance then.

The only advantage to the Flo besides it being reusable is that it has a magnet inside it to catch any metal particles.... Should have mentioned that before.

Yes I saw the specs. Do you know of an independent test that was done. I did Google it but saw a few biased
tests that was done.
