I just changed oil and filter on my new '09 5.7L truck.
I used a Purolator L 24651 filter. Is this one of the right filters to use? What are some more? How about the filters that Walmart sells?
Thanks,
Jack
Lots of filters of various quality out on the market.Lots are made the same under differant names.Pure 1,Mobil,Wix,Redline,K&N are a few of the better quality ones.Then you got other,less expensive ones.The requirements are a oil/filter every 6 and 6. Pennzoil Platinum or such and one of the above filters and your good to go.try www.bobistheoilguy.com also.Lots of boring talk about oil,filters,lubes etc.
I have read several places that the mopar one is the best for the HEMI. Not my opinion just I have read it several places, ask me where I cannot find it for the life of my I believe the guy with the viper,srt10 and the new ram was one of them...sorry if you are not.
I use the Fram Toughguard - believe it's the TG16 and really like it. I can get a grip on it and don't have to use any tools to break the filter loose. I'm also running Mobil 1 and change up about every 7k.
