• Purolator One PL14612

[Top Venture]

Wondering if anyone is using this oil filter. I read somewhere that they change them and they don't seal properly anymore?

 

Thanks for the assistance.

I found this on an earlier post- look at the difference - there are newer filters out there that are convex(right) and not concave(left one) so the filters bottoms out before the seal contacts correctly. You have to watch out for this.

 

Hope this helps

I have switched over to WIX, because purolator changed design. I think the Mobil 1 filter and Bosch are still fine also. But since we got an Oreilys by the house WIX is a very good brand.

I tried a PL14612 this past summer (before I'd read here that the design had changed), and I did experience a slight oil leak where it didn't seal properly.
