Default Re: Ethanol and engine oil

FIXED MY PROBLEM!!! I changed my oil to Mobil1 15-50, and to my surprise, this had almost no change to my oil pressure. The only other thing I changed previously, was the filter, which for this one case was the Fram Tough Guard. I read up on Fram filters on google, and I read alot of complaints about people losing oil pressure. So what the hell, went and got me an OEM filter(which is alot smaller)...and what do you know. Got all my oil pressure back. OEM filters from her on out!

I thought fram filters and oem filters were made from the same company? I usually run
k20 or s2000 filters on my car to bump up the oil pressure
