Great video as always, thanks!! I would have liked you to have weighed the screens, that explains the extra pleats in the Amsoil & the weight difference, thinner metal screen. Both made by Champion Labs, although the Fram chat agent denies it, LOL. Royal Purple also a Champ product with different micron rating, so apparently the brand owner can specify media type & backing. I think the pull apart test was unfair, as oil flow will be pushing the pleats toward the inside, you applied pressure FROM the inside to get it to separate.
I would like to see another Fram Titanium (only sold by Advance Auto Parts) dissected as they have eliminated the metal screen (mesh) in that line. The 10575 (Fram) is a fast mover, so you're more likely to get a more current version of it. Look inside the core with a bright LED flashlight, you will see the wire through the holes if it's there. Thanks again!! Keep up the good work!
Thanks, Bob👍Glad you liked the video, and Thanks for pointing out the seam to me I didn't realize that it may have looked bad for the oil filters.
The seam pull-apart was just to show that it can be pulled apart in case anyone was wondering. Some people who have never opened up one of these filters may not know this. If it looked like I was bashing/putting down that seam, I wasn't, in all reality any oil filter seam can all be pulled apart, metal crimped/glued/etc. Take Care😊
@@WhipCityWrencherI have avoided buying these filters because of seeing you pull apart the seam. I thought you were demonstrating how the seam might fail.
@@MountainLife1 No I wasn't, like I stated above I was just showing how they can be pulled apart.
It was just-so-you-know info that I put in the video, that's all.
@@WhipCityWrencher Thanks for responding. Keep up the good work.
@@MountainLife1 You're Welcome and Thanks👍
FRAM $12.97
AMSOIL $22.55
FRAM the better choice
I'd agree, practically the same filter.
Good review. 👍 Interesting
Thanks drum👍
Yes sir, without a doubt. Fram FE FTW!👍👍👍
@@faxmen09 Right faxmen "..without a doubt." ...and thanks for your persistent deductive logic in the above comments.
Very good information. I just picked up the Fram Endurance due to its unreal filtering performance and construction. The best value out there at $12.97. What a nice surprise. Made in USA too!
You're Welcome and Thanks👍
Just got the endurance today at Walmart for the truck and car, appreciate your dedication to these oil filters inspections. You rock my man!
Thank You! I Appreciate It👍💯
Smart choice. Though I liked the OG media Ultra better at $9, the FE the only Fram I would choose now. And much smarter than buying the Ponzi priced but same Amsoil filter.
You should run your oil filter for 25,000 miles and tell us the results
Both filters made by Champ Labs, same synthetic media and for all intents and purposes the same filters. Blinded Amsoil fanboys have claimed that Amsoil used some special (Donaldson) media, but that was just bovine excrement. The FE is readily available at WM ~$13, so it is the clear and easy winner here. No need to pay multiple level marketer (Ponzi Scheme) pricing for the Amsoil. I'd choose the FE over the current cheapened media Ultra for extended ocis. Thanks for the comparison.
You're Welcome faxmen09,
I agree, I would take the New Endurance over the Ultra also.
I'm not a fan of Amsoil, but I haven't seen any Amsoil filters from before 2011 independently tested or cut open to know whether they did ever use the Donaldson media that allegedly could filter to 15 microns absolute, I dug back in the web archive and in 2010 they were still claiming 15 microns absolute but around 2011 they started claiming 20 microns absolute then later on they started saying 99%+ at 20 microns.
@@brandonupchurch7628 Perhaps in the far distant past (over a decade) the Amsoil filter may have used another media manufacturer, or even filter maker. However, that hasn't been true for some time, yet the myth seems to continue among Amsoil fanboys. Fyi, absolute means @98.7% but has become a rather obsolete term. Now with ISO 4548-12 being the standard testing, some % at some micron level more widely accepted. 99% @ 20um a common top rating now.
I’m pretty sure Fram filters are now made by first brands LLC
First Brands owns Fram and Champion Labs, but they seem to mostly keep them seperate, probably because legally in the early 2000s Rank Group bought out Champion Labs then in 2011 Honeywell had spun-off Fram Group and sold it to Rank Group which is an investment firm, so when Trico bought them they were probably still separate legally entities.
Looks like the Fram is the better deal. Both are good looking filters that will work just fine. Great job Pete.
Thanks, Robert👍
I love the investigative journalism that saves me time and money!
Glad you liked the video👍
I love your videos keep them up. So detailed
Thanks Wrenching👍
Pete,
I really enjoy your videos. Looks like both filters came off the same line with one getting different color paint and sticker !
Both good looking filters.
Thanks, Kevin
I like both filters also👍
Good job on the comparison ! Good video
Thanks Mugsy 👍
► Thanks For Watching! I try and make an oil filter inspection video every Friday on this UA-cam Channel, Thank You!
Great job Pete. As usual. Good filters. Theres a Fram I would use.
Thanks, Dwayne👍
I really appreciate this Chanel. Thx for all the great information 👍
You're Welcome👍
Thanks!
Thank you for a real, in-depth review
You're Welcome👍
I'm glad you liked the video, Thanks!
Thank you for this video! i am a heavy amsoil guy and this really REALLY surprised me...
Earned a sub by the way! Should do a head to head for the top oil filter!!! The video will surely get tons of views!! SOOO in depth!
You're Welcome👍
Thanks!
@@EvansWS6 Thank You👍
Whip, just wanted to thank you for doing this comparison! I now feel comfortable with the decision I made to run this new FE10575 synthetic endurance filter on my truck. The Amsoil filter is almost twice the price of the Fram here in Canada, for what appears to be essentially the same filter. Even the coating on the can seems to be the same, just a different color. I am running amsoil Signature Series 5w30 in my 5.0L now, but I got some Pennzoil ultra platinum 5w30 on sale for 40% off so I'll be running that next. Love your videos, keep em coming!
You're Welcome, Glad you liked the video.
IMHO the Endurance coupled with the Pennzoil Ultra is a winning combo👍
Thanks👍
Good call on the FE filter choice. No need to pay $10 more plus shipping for the same filter off the WM shelf. I also believe PUP oil will serve you well.
Finally I found someone who did the blue frame endurance.. Toyota OEM or the fram endurance for me
Thank you for your work!
You're Welcome Brian👍
Thanks😊
Excellent Analysis...as thorough as possible without high tech processing equipment. Have seen the Amsoil Filter disassembled...first look at Fram's latest high endurance filter. They are the same.
Thank You,
I think they are both Champ labs made oil filters
I got Fram endurance, amsoil and Royal purple oil filters and they are all the same when i open them. Same by pass valves, same anti drain back valves, , threads and base plate the same, same filter and gaskets, only difference is the logo, Brand and Colors.
Yep, all 3 made by Champ Labs.
They all may look the same, but flow, filtering performance apparently differs.
Both are good filters! Another great video Pete! TFS 👍 Have a nice weekend! Merri :)
Thanks Merri,
Have a Nice weekend also👍
Yep, for all intents and purposes, the same filters. Seeing as the FE is more than $10 less when shipping for the EAO, makes the FE the ez choice.
I just threw one of these Frams on my wife's car. I usually have a bunch of wix on the shelf, but I guess I forgot to replenish last time. I don't think I'll bother anymore. Just grab a filter while I'm buying the oil at Wally World instead. Great video!
Thank You😊 and
Thanks for Sharing👍💯
Thanks for the info, going to try the endurance on my daughters 2019 Hyundai tuscon
👍
I’ve worked in a couple factories, mainly food processing factories. When it comes to ketchup and other condiments; the specifications are between X weight and Y weight. So one 32oz bottle may be a couple grams off from the one next to it. That is probably what happens at these oil filter factories where it could be by weight or by how many pleats.
Hi Eric,
I think so too, there will be some minor variances from one filter to another.
They're within tolerances. The differences in these are so minor, that's what I think the differences are, just both within' tolerance. If you had enough of each filter, you would probably find two that matched perfectly.
Hey whip. Happy weekend great sharing 👍
Hi Christina,
Have a Great Weekend also👍
AMSOIL is one huge hype!!!
I agree, the Fram Endurance is the same oil filter.
I always put Amsoil in my car,it is probably one the best motor oil you can buy on the market, but I always had doubts about their filters, way too expensive for my pockets. I'm glad you made this video Pete, this proof that they're not worth the extra bucks.
You're Welcome 👍
owner of a company I worked for used two company f-150 trucks for 5 years the engine with the pennzoil ultra platinum looked better when tore down than the Amsoil did. note both bought brand new at the same time. in the end the pennzoil ultra platinum one have about 3000ish miles more on it they was doing 7,000 mile oil changes.
I think it's more proof of how much Fram has stepped up their game since their dark days under Honeywell.
@@vector150both were driven the exact same duty service, same route, same conditions, same service intervals, with the same filters and by the same person?
@@AndreiDPop yes
I'm a Purolator Boss user & occasionally a Wix XP or Napa Platinum user if I can't find the right size in The Boss, but that Fram Endurance looks solid and I wouldn't have a problem using one, I think Fram just got a bad rap in the 90's with their "orange can of death" 😆 Thanks for the informative videos, keep up the good work!
You're Welcome👍
I am going to start using Amsoil Hybrid oil for my 2024 hybrid Honda Sport, but, will save some money by using the FRAM oil filter instead of the Amsoil filter.
Good move. IMHO The Endurance is the same as the Amsoil.👍💯
Before hyper- inflation the lowest cost amsoil oil filter was about $20 ! Now people in the know ! Know ! 👍scamzoil !
The AMSOIL filter here is $18 and change at full retail cost, and most people end up getting it for around $15. Where are you seeing “about $20?”
You are 100% correct Scotty, the topic EAO17 $22 and change and that doesn't include shipping costs. Your name for the that filter, seems appropriate here. Fram FE FTW EZ!
Both look like good-quality filters. So similar, except the price. Well, the screen on these filters is also a little different. Another great comparison! A Great Weekend to You and All the Viewers! 👍😊
Hi Ella, Thanks!
Have a Great Weekend also!👍
@@WhipCityWrencher Thanks! 😊
They are the same just price is your difference.. my question is, who is going to go 25000 miles with out a oil change.... no way would I go that long....
I have AMSOIL has lasted no problem!! It was originally designed to go 30,000!! I have a car that only takes Eo filter which is 15,000 miles, had to replace filter but other than that ran smooth 26,600 miles before change!
Enjoyed your video. Nicely done. I first used an AMSOIL filter back in 1979. They were white, not black. And AMSOIL cautioned against using their filter with a non synthetic, or it would filter the additives out of the oil. AMSOIL recommended using a HASTINGS filter in lieu of having their filter. This was back before WIX took KRALINATOR and BALDWIN took HASTINGS. My, how things have changed. My filter of choice for years was HASTINGS. Back when they were HASTINGS, not poorly disguised BALDWINs. Anyway, where I am now the AMSOIL filter has been unobtainium. Counter guy just shrugs his shoulders. Tells me to buy a WIX. I went to the dealer and bought a couple of FL500S MOTORCRAFT. I was told they're actually PUROLATOR. I don't know, but at least I can get them. So far, so good. Thanks again for a good reveal.
Hi, Victor glad you liked the video.
The Motorcrafts are Purolator made and the filters in this video are Champ Labs. made.
Thanks for Sharing👍
Amsoil used to use Donaldson media in their filters, filtration was outstanding. Now, they are just another filter........
Great information!
Thanks👍
GREAT REVIEW!!!!
Thank You!👍
Thank you for the video. The only thing is missing- gluing quality. I haven't find yet bad glue on Amsoil filters. FRAM glue job is generally good too, except on FRAM Ultra Synthetic often they wrap the mesh around the media preventing it from touching the glue and allowing small percentage of the oil to bypass the media. Not as horrible fault as ACdelco (multiple large portions of the media not glued) filters have but I am expecting it to be fixed.
Fram for the win
Right you are. Another smart reviewer.
Thanks for this vid! Changing my Amsoil out today and somehow don't have a spare filter... So I guess I'm gonna by the commercial equivalent
You're Welcome
and Thanks👍
Both are made by Champion Labs. I would buy the Fram since they are the same Sorry Amzoil fan boyz.
Don't be sorry to the Amzoil fan boys. You are Spot On!
Great Explaining.
Thanks👍
I'm going for the $12 Fram Endurance FE10060 oil filter for my 2020 RAM 5.7 Hemi V-8 and 5W-20 Castrol Edge Full Synthetic oil.
Same filter different color! Slight differences but not enough for me to pay double the price. I'm impressed with the fram. I wouldn't hesitate using it and im not a fan of fram!
I've always wondered if the Amsoil filter could really be better than any other filter. I never would have guessed they are the same as a top of the line Fram! This is some seriously good investigative reporting. Thanks for busting the case wide open. :))
You're Welcome Joseph, and Thank You👍
Amsoil used to be when they were using Donaldson media.
@@bobt897 If hatt was the case, it's been a long time since that was true. In any case now, same media as FE.
@@faxmen09 Ya, I think it was 2010 or 2011
@@bobt897 I've seen that time frame mentioned before, could be. That said, I've seen the fanboys continue to make the claim to the present day. So over a decade ago, a long time.
Great Video.
Easy to explain the few differences. Different production runs.
👍
Close enough to the same for me...😁👍👍
They sure look the same. both are nicely made and are pretty clean. I would use either one although I use Amsoil oil for all my vehicles, I use Purolator filters because I find them to be just as good as the Amsoil filter but they’re about half the price.
You "find them" just as good? What is the filtering efficiency?
I believe “The Boss” is 99% at 25 microns. Throw a filter mag on the purolator and it is superior to any filter. Of course, throw the same filter mag on the Amsoil filter and it is superior just the same.
Damn nice review! Im curious about the glue up consistency of the filter media into the housing. If there is a spot where its not glued well, that a leak.
Thank You👍
No, I don't think there would be any leaks.
Good video. I went to Walmart yesterday (hate going in there) and bought a couple for my 21 Tacoma #9972 & a couple for our Subarus #7317. They were $12.97ea. Seem super high quality. The Toyota is a cartridge type & both orings are orange (silicone) which is also nice. No way in hell I’m running my oil 25k miles though. I usually do 7k on the truck & 6k in the Subarus.
Thanks👍
@chrisb94782.......................................IF you use a good HIGH QUALITY oil, you can go much further than 7,000 miles.

Apparantly they are the same filter but Fram is cheaper in cost.
Another great video. What a price difference and they’re almost the exact same filter. Your videos are proof that Fram is good quality.
Thanks, Todd👍
Thanks, Pete. The similarities are uncanny. Clearly, they are made at the same place. I think the dye stain on the media may indicate which product assembly line it goes on. I guess Amsoil is outsourcing certain products. Both filters would serve well in any application.
You're Welcome Jonathan👍
Yep, both were made by Champ Labs.
Crazy part beyond the Fram Endurance being the same as Amsoil and Royal Purple, but it is strange that Amsoil sells WIX filters when they do not have an Amsoil model to fit and WIX is made by Mann+Hummel and not Champion labs. They sell two different brands, but the WIX XP is basically the same filter.
Thank you!!!
You're Welcome Jensen👍
AFAIK, if you buy the Amsoil "membership" which immediately pays for itself, the filters cost about the same without shipping. So if you are buying their oil, it's not like you're paying double for the filter.
Should watch performance testing by Brand Ranks. They test the Fram endurance and amsoil filters. Fram performed very well…. Amsoil outperformed the FE by filtering almost 3X better.
I have been using the Amsoil filters, paired with their signature series oil for some 17 years. The price gap is a lot more narrow if you’re a Preferred customer. I’m able to change my oil once a year. The oil and filter ship for free to me, so i even save the trip to the store. I think I’d spend the $5 savings in gas by going to get the Fram. Good video, though!
Thanks for Sharing
Amsoil doesn’t even manufacture their own oil it’s all Mobil 1 that’s been mixed. Not saying it’s bad stuff but the reason it’s so much if because they only mix oils not produce them…
@@ebkbk9902 explain why Mobil1 does not sell 100% synthetic oil? It’s because AMSOIL is the best. Shut your mouth before I shut it for you
@@ebkbk9902 SORRY, but you know NOTHING about the AMSOIL oils! MOBIL1 is NOTHING like AMSOIL, other than it can be called a Synthetic oil, due to a lawsuit in the late 90's!
@@1gr8oil Dont be mad at the facts chevron provides the bulk oil for amsoil to blend. Unlike mobil 1 who actually manufactures their bulk oil and blends it. Shell is another company who manufactures and blends their own oil. Not many companies actually make the oil they sell they blend it.
Pretty eye opening.
I wonder if the slight differences have to do with the date of manufacture? Late 22 was when the Ultra changed the filter media with no wire backing and Fram added the Titanium to the line-up. Then the Endurance came out in early 23. This is all based off memory, so my dates could be skewed. Maybe the Amsoil spec’d the filter for slightly more pleats, either way $8-$10 isn’t worth 2sq in more media when it’s the same media.
I dont think it's a big deal either as the number of pleats can vary even if they are the same size. I've opened up the exact same filters in the past that had different numbers of pleats.
Oh don't say it so someone has a filter that's identical to amsoils 😅 . I can just imagine all the fanboys will be going nuts over this. Amsoils filters are very interesting to see who sources them. I hear everything from they make their own media. To Donaldson or Baldwin making them but to amsoils specs. Kudos to Fram for coming out with a great product and not the gimmick thing that amsoil is
I’m an Amsoil member. I run all their fluids in my vehicles. I have bought their filters and ironically, my vehicle takes this exact same filter (EAO17). I don’t pay $22+ for my filter. I get the member discount and buy the case of 12 filters ($164.75 or, $13.73 per filter). Now, being a member, I also earn a $5 credit for every $100 I spend (basically it’s a 5% discount across the board since that rebate applies to ALL Amsoil products, not just filters). In short, I pay $13.04 per filter on average. And you’re paying $12.72 for the Fram equivalent and screaming “SUCKERS!!!” to people like me because you’re paying 32 cents less per filter!!!! LOL!!!
Oh, I forgot to mention….. I get my filters shipped free to my house. So the Amsoil haters like you are spending the time, and gas money, to go to Walmart to buy the Fram equivalent filter to save 32 cents.
My point?….. you are definitely paying more per filter than me! Gas money alone will bust that cost not to mention, the time and inconvenience you spend whereas I don’t have to.
Best to ignore the bloviating blather from any amsoil fanboy. No need to jump through amsoil hoops like buying in bulk and paying a membership fee. Just pick up the same filter off the WM shelf for ~$13 when you need it. Simple. Fram FE FTW.
I see they don't list one for my truck, but AMSOIL has had one forever. Wazzup with dat ?
What's the year, make, and engine on your truck?
Does that green paint block the filter media? Or is it just dye and able to flow through it
I'm pretty sure its a dye.
I migh use the fram endurance on my truck 2002 f 150 now on .👍
👍
Why might? Ether you do or you do not. What are you using now?
I can’t speak for the OP, but I DO NOT use Fram filters. I use amsoil filters. Period.
Best to ignore the amsoil fanboy comment here. Readily available Fram FE easy choice vs amsoil with astute buyers. No need to pay Amsoil Ponzi pricing plus shipping.
Mr. Wrench and youtubers in your honest opinions what is the best oil filter in the world for a 2019 F150 with the 2.7L Ecoboost engine using synthetic engine oil? Your replies are greatly appreciated. TIA
I don't know of a best, but the two in this video would be pretty darn good for your Ford.
If your changing your oil at around 3000 - 5000 miles the Ford, Motorcraft filter is also a good filter to use. Walmart synthetic oil and the Motorcraft filter at Walmart will keep your engine healthy, at a low price.
Hey good filters but they might filter to good and actually restrict flow we got to be careful good flow is also important
An excellent review, cheers!!
Thanks Chris, Cheers!
just so you know. just heard something at the auto parts store about mobil 1 filter glue failing under metal end caps. so my buddy was doing his oil change and uses those filters and asked if I could have it. Cut it open and the end caps easily peeled off each end. Metal end caps are glued over plastic ones under the metal. My 10 year old could of peeled these off. He is till going to use them just figured I would post here about it.
Hi vector,
Thanks for posting and Sharing👍
I've seen some other brand filters do the same thing. I show one in a video, here's a link to that video in case you missed it. ua-cam.com/video/EbySqef68IM/v-deo.html&ab_channel=WhipCityWrencher

Always!
That is the first frame filter I saw that didn't use cardboard end caps on the filter media.
Fram Ultra, Endurance, Titanium, HP, and Fram Drive, all have metal endcaps.
Thanks!
The Fram Endurance is the same as that Royal purple filter .. The manufacturers Merged together !! Cut one open and find out🎉
Definitely the same. 👍
This comparison of products reminds me of the time I worked in a sugar refinery in Calif. After the product was made, it was sent over to the packaging department and that's where I saw that there must have been over a dozen different product bags from different brands and they were changed depending on the order. The orders were for the big name sugar brands and others were for the single use packets. The same product with different packaging. I'm sure that's the case we see here. A price differential of $10.00 for a different label. You be the judge. "Nuf said......
Your comment reminds me of years ago 1970s. When I was a teenager I used to grade potatoes, and the same thing was going on, the same potatoes went into different labeled potato bags. LOL. It probably happens with a lot of products being sold.
They are the same filter for me.
What was the price for each?

You would be spending the time, and gas money, to go to Walmart to buy the Fram equivalent to save 32 cents whereas I spend the time to order online and have all of my fluids and filters pre-saved so that I can order quickly.
My point?….. you would actually be paying more per filter than i am.

"This Is Sticker" 😄
So Fram gave us a Amsoil filter with fram name on it🤔still miss those K&Ns😭they had a lot more inlet holes for oil flow and these baseplates are on the K&N HPs too
I'd say more like First Brands ( Fram and Champ owner) gave us the FE after cheapening the media on the Ultra, formerly an excellent filter for less cost. But yes, the FE an Amsoil filter by another name.
If I remember correctly, the super tech filters that walmart sells along side the fram filters are made by k&n
@@memesredacted No. K&N doesn't make any oil filters. They have been by Champ Labs though off shored for a while. But most recently made by Champ Labs.
Fram it is
I use Amsoil oil but stick with Denso filter
For the addition of two extra pleats in the Amsoil I would not pay 10 dollars extra over Fram after seeing that in this video it clearly shows they were probably made by the same company .
They are both made by Champ Labs. Just buy the FE off the WM shelf. EZ
$12.97 for the Fram and $22.55 for the Amsoil. I don't see the justification of $9.58 extra for the Amsoil filter. Fram's high end oil filters are definitely worth looking at and are not the same as their orange cans of death.
Millions have used Fram EGs with zero problems.. I've seen far far worse than the EG.
This dissection video not something Amsoil sellers want you to see. The Ponzi scheme pricing makes the cost ridiculous. FE easily FTW here.
The EAO17 is $18 and change retail price. Dealer/pc price is about 25% lower than that (do the math). Where are you seeing $22.55?
Just to be crystal clear, Amsoil "dealer" pricing is for a dealer only. PC pricing according to Amsoil site costs $20 a year. Once the 'on topic' EAO17 added to cart the price is $22.35 as @highrzr "accurately" states. And, that price does NOT include shipping costs. The $18+ shown before adding to cart is 'perhaps' for some EAO filter, but not the topic. Seems like smoke and mirrors pricing deception from Amsoil. The topic FE, ~$13 off the WM shelf, no shipping costs, no ponzi pricing.
@@faxmen09 you really ought to look up the definition of a Ponzi scheme. Ignorance isn’t a good look on anyone.
Looks like the exact same filters. Fram is probably cheaper, so I'd use it.
Good call.
Hey - a Fram I'd actually use! Stamped metal leaf retainer spring can(n)ister commenter probably thought this day would never come.
🤣👍
The same but different. You need to make some difference when you make custom for another customer
They must both contract with the same manufacturer.
Yep, they look to be made by Champ Labs.
Its so hard to find them, im from uk
Thanks for Sharing👍
All this negativity towards Amsoil lol their filters for my Acura is $10.35 and regular price is $13.30 for non members. Doesn’t matter which one you use, change your oil frequently, use Amsoil signature series engine oil or penzoil ultra platinum, and I highly recommend Amsoil ATF to go with it.
Thanks for Sharing👍
Rated at "99% @ 20 microns" and rated at "99% for particles greater than 20 microns" is essentially saying the same thing because 20.0001 microns is greater than 20 microns.
I say so too, but as I mentioned in the video, over the years I have had lots of viewers insist that there is a huge difference. Thanks for the feedback👍
@@WhipCityWrencher It's basically semantics. There isn't a huge difference between 20.00 and 20.01 microns for example, so people familiar with filter efficiency may use both terminology methods For instance, Purolator and others uses "xx% @ yy microns" while Fram uses "xx% for particles greater than yy microns". ISO 4548-12 actually says to use the terminology "for particles greater than yy microns" so that it implies that all particles above yy are included.
@@zeeosix Yep, Ive noticed that some are putting a + after the 99% also. LOL
@ Jon O could use this explanation as he doesn't understand (or doesn't want to) that it's a distinction with no difference. But, he is an admitted Amsoil fanboy.
Well if you can’t tell the difference why pay the difference .unless you have sucker written on you for head 😎😎 good job 👍👍👍👍
Thank You👍
The FRAM endurance, the FRAM filter that's not made by FRAM but Champ Labs .....it's probably better than a actual FRAM orange can of death FRAM
Fram is made by first brands llc.
@@dontderockmerizz3211 ,not the Endurance, it's manufactured by Champ Labs for FRAM & distributed by FRAM
@@daewooparts ahhhh, good to know.
Spending soo much money on a Amsoil filter for no real reason.
Exactly!
Looks like Amsoil is contracting with Fram to make their filters. If true, it shows how much of a tool marketing is at Amsoil, considering they charge twice as much for the same product !
Actually, I think Champ Labs is making the Amsoil and Fram Endurance oil filters.
Thanks!
@@WhipCityWrencher , probably so, Champion seems to make many brands. Amsoil still disingenous on the price for product. Good revealing video.
@@flexjay87 Thanks👍
it seems from my observation, the Amsoil oil filter prices have come down. I used to never buy their oil filters, but have now ordered a few because the price has come down quite a bit (even as preferred customer)
