Purolator Classic One and Boss Filter Review

I've been using Purolator filters for years. For the price, the Purolator One can't be beat.
Out of all of the lineups that filter brands present, Purolator has the most consistent and quality filters I have seen. Filter media is of good quality and construction is second to none. This is my go too filter. Made in America! Hopefully they don’t change a thing.
We shop at menards they switched from quakerstate to purolator filters
remember when walmart used to carry the purolator classic, it was cheaper than fram and much better built.
Apparently colors and new boxes make the price go up lol
@@ArjjunSingh Yup haha, also Bosch distance+.. they really downgraded.
Best Filters I've ever used. They're my go-to for my vehicles!
I've been waiting for this review of these filters. I've been using the purolator boss filter since its come out and I love it. It's my go to filter and its great for the price. Thank you for reviewing it.
Glad to help. Really nice filters.
It's not great for the price. The Purolator Boss used to be the Purolator PureOne, they discontinued the PureOne and rebranded it into the Boss and increased the price. You could get that filter for the same price as the current PurolatorOne
Great video on these filters I've used many different brands of oil filters and never really had a bad experience with any of them but through my experiences and results I now primarily use purolator,wix, or napa,filters. 90% of the time it's purolator.....oh I also use mopar filters as well though I'm a little uncomfortable using them not knowing who makes them, I've used Fram many times and never had a problem with them.
Good show. You do well in you presentation. Purolator is hard to beat as a line of oil filters. Great quality control. I like the boss, but I also use wix xp, bosch long distance, stp gold and k&n. I buy any of these which are on sale. I go higher-end. My ram has 268, 000. The results speaks for itself.
I have seen most of your oil filter videos. I am totally sold on the Purolator. Thanks so much for helping me make up my mind. I am now Tim the Purolator Man.🚘💃
Thank you. I like Purolator as well.
Thanks for these oil filter videos. I enjoy yours more than some of the other folks. I plan on using the Boss next oil change I do. Been using Mobil 1 full synthetic oil in my car. I would to stay with a USA made filter. Thanks again my friend.
Advance auto parts ditched fram products for these. A good choice. Much higher quality for a comparable price. I️ have used the classic for my wife’s truck changing every 4K and the boss on my vw turbo changing every 7500 miles. Happy with both.
I like these as well. Advance is currently selling synthetic Castrol w/Boss filter for $33
@@CarsNToys That's how I got introduced to these filters, they still have the same deal in 2022! Great value
Not anymore, the partnered with them again. They carry both lines though.
funny you should mention. A parts guy told me once that Fram ruled the world until You tube came along and exposed them. That's the reason his parts store stopped selling them....also the reason Fram started making a better line of filter.
7500 for a turbo vehicle is insane bro that oil must come out blacker than my weiner
They are excellent filters. I've been using the Boss with Pennzoil Ultra Platinum.
yea girl
Don Stromberg Great combo. If your an oil freak like me look into Schaeffer oil. Amazing stuff.
Don Stromberg thats my go to combo as well!
Same here.
@@charlespetersonii6989 if you're an oil freak you will be more interested in polyalphaolefins than mineral cracking oils. Also you'd recognize that Pennzoil ultra is probably the best mineral oil you can run in your vehicle because of its natural gas base stock. Flow rate, wear protection, and cleaning ability are the most important thing to most North American vehicles. Pennzoil ultra beats most PAOs in these categories.
I recently put in the Purolator Boss filter. WOW. Amazing product it is.
I have a 1986 Yugo GV with a 1.1 L, carburetor , high compression engine and always put 10w-40 Castrol GTX conventional oil . I always remembered their commercials on how they were engineered the oil for smaller engines like my car. Their works were always conceiving when you see the intense heat being build up on the combustion chambers and then they broke down. Did one amazing job getting the viewers attention that's for sure.
Then I add the Purolator Boss filter to maximize engine protection, boost it's efficiency, extreme reliability in filtering, and the satisfaction rate on how it works.
Got to say it was an excellent combination that I recommend for your older model high compression motors. It runs like it's off the dealerships parking lot.
Thank you for sharing this video with us. It made me want to buy the BOSS filter and boy, I'm never going to buy anything else until Purolator outdoes itself on developing another advance version to succeed it.
The best comparison video is here!
Been running the boss filter and Valvoline full synthetic in my car works great
Great video as always. Very informative and helpful. Thank you!
Thank you
Great review of what I consider to be one of the best oil filters on the market, I was using fram filters until I started seeing poor build and functionality videos, so I switched to Purolator Boss oil filters, along with Pennzoil Platinum (full synthetic) motor oil, and my 15, Silverado runs like brand new, with plenty of horse power response. I would highly recommend to any fram oil filter users to do your engine a favor and switch to Purolator oil filters, your car or truck will thank you for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great combo. Recently opened a Boss filter after 16k miles using Pennzoil Platinum. If interested... ua-cam.com/video/sjGQ6Vr8EgY/v-deo.html
The bypass valve is also made to open on real cold weather starts when the oil is too thick to be forced through the filter. Good video.
I love these videos. I have both the 1 & boss for both a 97' Rav4 & 01' Highlander.
I'm gonna use the ones & when I'm down to my last filter, which I hope I don't have to use. Imma use the boss as a "save the best for last" bought them all at Amazon once on sale. One was around 5-7. While boss was 11. Normally the one is like 7.20 & Boss is 13
Also for the rav4, I have the premium bosch oil filter as well. To me they're the same as the purolator 1. Kinda how like 7up & Sprite are.
Great video! First time watching one from your channel. Very nice job, might subscribe!!! Thumbs up
Thank you. Glad to share.
Thanks for the detailed overview!
Really good filter reviews! Confirms other info I was able to find on the internet. I will basically stick with Wix and purolator filters for my cars
I'm going to try them today for sure. Just bought the blue filter
They're nicely made.
The Boss filter having a thicker shell and base would be excellent for use on a tractor, or truck that might be used where there's more possibility of impacted damage when used on a farm or off road. Better filtering would just be a bonus.
I just bought one because of your review
They are well made. Cheers.
Thanks for the review very informative
Learn something new everyday. I always assumed the anti drain back valve was to keep oil IN the filter. Looking at the design of the anti drain back valve it would support oil from draining from anything uphill from the filter when the engine is off.
I love your filter videos!
Thank you.
My go to Filter! Purolator One filters are excellent. I got Nissan thats got over 200k. Oil is nice a clean! I also use Wix/Nissan OEM in my other car only because its under warranty.
I recently purchased an oil filter cutting tool because I wanted to inspect the condition of the Purolator Pure One oil filter I used on my truck with Royal Purple 5w-30. I used the filter for 6,000 miles which is well within its advertised life span. Although the integrity of the filter appeared to be intact I have to say I am disappointed with the quality of the construction. I have seen other videos where these filters have been dissected and they looked really well made which is what motivated me to try the Pure One. I have two major complaints about my filter upon inspection. First, in other videos I have seen of the filters they opened up showed that the filter media started and ended with a metal crimp which is what I prefer, but the filter I had was only glued together. Second, the spacing of the filter media was very inconsistent with several wide gaps. At first I thought this was due to the media being saturated and manipulated by flowing oil during use, but once I cleaned the old oil away I discovered it was due to the position in which the media was bonded to the metal end caps during manufacture
Interesting. I have a Boss filter I'm about to open up after 12k miles. I'm curious to see the results. I'll post a video shortly.
CarsNToys how did it look when you open the filter?
One point not made correct me if I'm wrong, is that the Boss filter bottom hole floor is concaved (recessed) which allows a little more space between the filter floor and where it meets the car. This may allow optimum oil flow with the added space. IDK let me know what ya think.
I´ve watched a lot of your oil filters videos and I can conclude that Purolator Boss would be one of the best oil filters money can buy, I´m asking because I plan to get a top quality oil so I can avoid oil change for a year. I drive 12,500 miles a year so this would be a good filter to combine with the a top quality 100% synthetic lubricant wouldn´t it?
The -14610 and its shorter (2.5" tall) brother, the -14612) also work very nicely in a Yamaha FJR1300 motorcycle.
Purolator also changed the coating on at least the PL. It used to be an easy to grip sandy, baby sh1t yellow color. Now, it's the somewhat slippery, dark blue color you see here.
They redesigned the purolator one from a grit gold to blue
I typically don't have an issue with that. I use Motorcraft filters in my vehicles. 1/2 to 3/4 of a turn once gasket touches and they come right off after 7- 10k miles
I've researched over and over and purolator is the best looking best filtering best burst strength and best flow rate....i am purolator for good now
Really nice filters. I'm using them more and more. Cheers.
Hey, AutoZone just released a new stp oil filter called the max life oil filter. It'd be cool to see a comparison video between the standard stp, extended life, and the new max life filters. Great video, thanks for the great content!
Thanks. I just received a message a few days ago regarding their Max filters. Will upload soon. Cheers.
Very nice review. Thank you.
I've used the blue and black for a while now. Good filters as far as I know.
Very nicely constructed. I've never used them but I will in the future. Cheers.
Very nice video. Thank you.
I use pennzoil ultra platinum in the summer with the purelator boss & valvoline advanced in the winter with the purelator one.
I've always found Purolator products to be of very good quality. 👍
Any idea what the efficiency micron rating of the Boss?
I noticed that Purolator rep didn't respond about the efficiency rating. Silence is golden, hmmmm. I still love the Boss. The Ultra is hard to beat. Price and Efficiency. Thanks for the review.....take care
I use the Mobil 1 EP filter- mite as well try the Boss
Advanced runs a great deal of 5 qts of synthetic and boss filter for $29.95. Now it's Mobile1 and their best filter, plus a roll of shop towels.
They do. I just picked one up.
Hey man, nice video. Very detailed review 👍! Have you thought about reviewing Napa Oil Filters? Im sure that'll make an interesting review 😆. Keep up the good work, we (the viewers/subscribers) appreciate it.
Thanks man. Appreciate it. I have NAPA coming soon.
CarsNToys Awesome! Thank you.
I have a 2015 Chevy Impala limited LTZ with a direct injection motor and that drain back valve takes 3 hours, just to check the oil!!
that's how good it keeps the oil up into the head of the engine never had a filter like that in my life PS pain in the ass to check your oil up
I love Purolator filters used them for years but I cant seem find them anywhere except Advance Auto Parts
Menards.. and good price too
Purolators are great! Tell a friend, and save their car from the Orange Can of Death!
Yeah fram is trash.
@@Tman0517 Except for their synthetic filter, which came in 3rd place behind Royal Purple and Amsoil in this filtration test. www.gmtruckcentral.com/articles/oilfilterstudy.html
Orange Can bad? lol
Back when I bought a '91 Stealth R/T, I discovered that the Fram had an inconsistent oil pressure, whereas the Purolator gave me a consistent oil pressure. I never used Fram filters again. Since then I learned how bad Fram oil filters were.
saved myself from that 40+ years ago used Motorcraft for about 10 years then switched to Purolator and never looked back
I talked to Purolator now owned by Mann + Hummel, they told me that the BOSS although synthetic filters at higher micron level than the ONE. I believe the ONE does 20 microns, whereas the BOSS does 25 microns.
I usually use the “One” on my wife’s Highlander and on my G37S I’ll either go with a M-110 M1 EP or a Purolator Boss.
After working for PepBoys for almost 2 years I've put these on a ton of cars. They seem to be some great quality filters and from all the crappy Fram filters that I've had to fight with to take off, these are much more reliable. We even have a line of filters called PurolatorTech which is what the service side uses for the basic oil filter. If you could get your hands on one and compare it to the other three it would be appreciated because I've always wanted to see their composition.
When you say high mileage for the red filter do you mean high mileage synthetic blend oil?
So my car was using synthetic blend with Honda oil filter. I am thinking of switching to full synthetic oil, will that Honda filter suffice or I need something different?
You missed one important detail:
Is the bypass relief valve using a "soft seat" or a "hard seat." The former refers to when an elastomer gasket-insert is used between the poppet and the plate to form a tight seal so that oil does not seep through when the valve is closed. A "hard seat" is an inferior metal-on-metal seal that always leaks to a certain degree allowing oil to bypass the filter element.
I have a good idea a anti drain back red silicone washer with a 3-5 psi coil spring under it for the anti drain back system.
Are the tearing of media still an issue on these newer Purolator?
Best mid range filter, Purolator One or Bosch?
Wonder how the pep boys proline made by purolator filters are ? Like a classic ?
Do you happen to have the micron filtration rating for each of the filter media?
(or did I miss that?)
Thanks!
I pick up a boss filter and pick up a fram ultra, and boss feel more heavy and more heavy duty and feel more sturdy then the fram ultra, with discount code by buying online at advance auto part, its my only high end filter for now.
Can you make a video comparing Purolator oil filter vs Carquest oil filter? Thanks
Purolator has a video on the burst pressure of the Boss filters, its over 600 psi.
Thanks, interestingly: I,have never seen any “ PERFORMAX ( made Mexico) PO-167[PZ-167 PENNZOIL??], etc., oil Filters examined!! (my DODGE DEALER USES PERFORMAX in my 2015 Journey Program Oil Change .....?).....** last two I,examined were labeled MADE USA.
The "one" (blue) is also known as the Ripolator because the filter media gets rip holes in it during use. Lots of pictures online of the issue.
Interesting. I've had no issues. Thanks for the heads up.
Best filters out there! Only ones i use! ill substitute a mobil 1 or wix if i cant get one. Buy mine at meijer.
Great show. Thanks!!!
Michael Herrell
What is the micron rating on the 3 filter?? I don't see it on there website.
One interesting fact left untold is all three filters have the bypass valve located at the bottom of the filter which is obviously not the ideal location. Many oil filters have the bypass valve located at the top of the oil filter to keep contaminants from reaching the engine during periods when the bypass is open.
I used the cheap Purolator classic for sometime, and my truck hated me in the cold mornings. I will never go bottom tier, especially one's with rubber anti-drain back valve.
Thanks for the feedback!
Whats the micron rating on the Boss?
5:40 found an error, the bypass valve doesn’t open at all just because the media is clogged, that’s not how that works. Bypass valve on a oil filter is designed to open under a specified pressure to prevent the starvation of oil. Most Subaru and smaller high performance engines require 23-26 psi filters, and other engines tends to run between 12-18psi filters. So that’s why it’s important to mention each oil’s bypass pressure in order to understand if the oil will work with a certain car’s spec. This bypass valve is not performance related, but more designed for certain specifications. I believe older PureOne are only rated for 16psi while the new Purolators are 20-30psi. So for engines designed to use 12-18psi, this wouldn’t be the right filters to use because it may potentially starve the engine of oil. And vice versa, if you put a KNN oil filter in a Subaru WRX sti, it’s not going to filter anything for roughly 6-8psi range because Subarus are specified to use a much higher bypass pressure filter and the KNN bypass valve will be opened all the time once the engine operates at a pressure pass its limit.
How does a filter know how many miles you drive on it. Pleat area is what matters and micron rating.
At the time of writing this, Purolator has changed all of their 3 oil filter lineups (regular, ONE, and BOSS) to be rated at an extra 5,000 miles. So the regular is now rated at 10,000 mi, the ONE is rated at 15,000 mi, and the BOSS is rated at 20,000 mi. Would be nice to see an old vs new to see what changed to make them last an extra 5,000 mi.
Probably nothing changed. 🤣
Fortunately, I still have these filters in my shed. I will f/u and compare old vs new shortly.
I just picked up 2 of the Ones for $2.35 and a synthetic filter for $3.99 cuz our kmart is closing down. All 3 for my toyota pickup. I honestly bought them not knowing much about them but i couldnt pass em up
Awesome deal
Dougie Backus, wish I would’ve known that then...I would’ve snagged a dozen of each!
Very good video.
Thank you.
Why i did not see this video before!! OMG
Fwiw their red lowest line now runs 10k miles, blue is 15k & 20k. All have the "Silicon" db valve which is important to have on Air Cooled engines as temps are not consistant do rubber deforms & breaks down more. Been running Purolators over 20yrs. Quality has always been above the rest, others may catch up but its rarely been for very long.
How are these compared to Amsoil filters?
Thank you bruh!
One more thing. I am now running full synthetic, high mileage oil. Would it still be ok to use the Boss or the One ? Any comments I would appreciate. Thanks to all.
Very very decent review.
Appreciate the feedback.
For a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4L engine - following the 6 month filter and synthetic oil change what would you recommend between WIX and Purolator for quality and value?
Jeff Holt I own same vehicle. Try *Baldwin filter B1431* 👍
P.S. WixXP 51(7)356 better then Purolator Boss PBL14610 because WixXP has honest and strong coil spring instead weak leaf at Purolator. Coil spring is a 100% keep and push filter element to the base plate with no leak between them and silicone valve. Leaf spring - not.
I love Purolator classic, been using them for many years. The classic has 96% filtration but boss is 98%. The classic is less restrictive because standard oil thickens over time, whereas synthetic does not. I run the classic filter with mobil1 for 8-10,000 miles no problem. My concern is reduced oil flow and back pressure on the oil pump. Just know that as a filter fills with dirt, it actually filters better. If a synthetic filter gets clogged, the oil bypasses the filter completely. 10,000 miles max for my cars. Combustion engines create dirty oil regardless. Best practice is to replace the filter after 10,000. Oil change is $35 vs an engine costing $15,000
You can get a discount at Advanced Auto Parts if you go on line to buy. There is a savings code you put in when paying on line. Then just go in and they hand you your part. Usually 20 percent. No discount for battery's
David Pearson approves. Pure oil now....pure oil later.
Good job.
Can I use the red filter for full synthetic with a 3k mile oil change? I know it's not the greatest, but I usually do 3k mile oil changes anyway. Doesn't seem like it'll hurt, thoughts?
Yes you can
Good job on your video! I noticed you said 96% or 99% efficiency for certain filters. There is one more thing to consider. The filters are x% for a certain size particle. Does the filter say what sized particle are they 99% are filtering?
Most filters follow specific guidelines via outside vendor testing. In other words, every filter is inhabited with the same test conditions. I have to find the name of the non-profit that performs the tests. It's been sometime since I researched it. Appreciate the comment.
I've seen conflicting evidence on the Boss Sales Rep said it was 99% @ 40 Microns, but technical data for ISO 4548-12 says 99% @ 25 microns so I'm waiting to here back from their technical team.
PurolatorOne is 99% @ 20 microns
Red is 96.5% @ 20 microns.
My Q50 Infiniti soon to due for an oil change. Is the Boss Purolator better than the XP Wix? Amsoil SS 5w30 is what I'm putting in.
They're both excellent filters. I know Advance Auto Parts is currently running good deals with Purolator Boss and synthetic motor oils.
Doesn’t MANN Hummel own Purolator? Along with wix
The anti-drainback valve really isn't that important if your filter is spun-on upside down (as most are), or spun somewhat upside down at an angle. The oil will naturally stay in the filter due to gravity. So the anti-drainback valve is only really important if you filter is spun on from the top of the motor or on the side but higher-up. That being said, the Purolator is a very good filter for the money and I also believe they make the Motorcraft filters for Ford and those are very good filters as well.
Thanks for this explanation of the anti-drainback valve, i had always wondered about that.
You can get these filters at advance auto parts and they are great
You nailed it. Interestingly enough, AutoZone doesn't carry them; at least the local ones around here.
CarsNToys AutoZone is garbage they sell nothing but junk I only shop at advance auto parts because they carry the best brand's
Utah county Picazo's page They run a great deal where you can get a 5 quart of full synthetic Pennzoil with the boss filter, for $29.99.
The Carquest reds are Purolator classics and the Carquest blue are Purolator one filters. On Bob is the oil guy they hate the classics because some have torn media but at the same time a lot of the ppl there say Fram orange filters aren't that bad,
What types of bypass springs do the filters use?
Good air filtration also from puralator
Your videos are awesome man! Thanks a lot!
Thank you.
Hello,
Does the Purolator Boss work with conventional oil as well?
Yes, but they're designed to last for quite a long time. How often are you changing the oil?
Any reviews of "does size matter" for filters? So little room for them with crowded engine and accessories, restrict size of filter.
Owned 3 Toy tks, 85, 89, 94, - lots of room for giant size which could fit with so much room - not now with newer vehicles.
Looks like the classic filter is the same as the ONE except for silicone ADBV. I use the classic because I change my oil every 2500-3000 miles. That's around the mileage I can't see my oil dip stick level lines through the oil. The oil has more life but not up to my standards. My mechanic burns the old oil for heat so he gets the old oil.
I just got a ONE for $7 shipped on Amazon after $2 coupon code.
I Have an old truck that uses high mileage oil and maybe a zinc additive (depending if I want to add it or not next time). Since it is high mileage oil could I run the boss filter?
Sure could.
Depending on your oil change interval, I suspect you would be needlessly spending more than you need on an oil filter, but the extra cost would be trivial compared the the cost of an engine rebuild.
That's a question I have. Other than cost, is there an issue running conventional oil or blend through the Boss filter? You mention several times about intended use of filters. Why is the Boss only for synthetics? Would I not get superior filtering and maximum life of conventional or blended oil by going with the higher end? Thanks in advance ...
Helpful from from their office:
Boss 99% at 40 microns
One (blue) 99% at 20 microns
Purolator (Red) 96.5% at 20 microns
Taylor Strickler The Boss, the only high end model filter that has 40 at 99%. That stinks. If they'd get it down to 20, they'd probably have the best high end filter on the market. Until then, Fram Ultra Syn for me.
@@utahwanderlust700 That was my conclusion too. I've been using the Fram Ultra Syn on my 370Z since it was new and it is doing a great job of keeping the engine clean.
“One” seems like a great filter for a 99% at 20 microns at only $8-$10
@@videomaniac108 I’ve been curious about tryin out the FRAM ultra in my G37S. I usually use M1’s M-110 EP which is a tad larger than OEM but has the same thread pitch and diameter so if I can put a bigger filter on than why not especially since the filters on our VQ37VHR’s are so tiny
@@sk8punk318 I was thinking the same thing and would like to fit a taller filter on my Z if I could. The taller filter, with it's greater filtration area, may be what Mobil 1 is doing to compensate for a more restrictive filter that has superior filtration efficiency.
I currently have a Wix XP and a Purolator Boss filters. I am going to run Pennzoil Ultra Platinum 5w-30 engine oil. Any comments on what filter is "better" ?
Stepside1986 - You picked the perfect oil, which is what I also use. There's no better oil than that. However, the filter I use is the Mobil 1 Extended Performance. My second choice would be a Wix XP.
Both are very good filters.
Bobby Knight
Wrong idiot... In wear tests... Amsoil and Quaker State Ultimate Durability beat Pennzoil Ultra... STFU
Bobby Knight...LoooL
Regular Wix filters more than XP.
