I was looking for an oil filter for the ol' Beam tonite and came across
Fram's new 'Tough Guard' series of filters (#TG-16 for our cars). In
reading the side of the carton I find that this filter now includes a
silicome anti-drain-back valve so it will retain the oil and not let it
drain back into the sump.
It seems that this filter may solve the loathsome Alpine startup oil
pressure problem, at least in part. Has anyone out there tried these
filters? Does it help?
