[Re: BigJim] #832548 08/30/07 12:08 AM Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 692 Connecticut B Bigbird79 Rock Warrior Personally I prefer Wix filters, or the Napa Gold filters, which are just re-packaged Wix filters. If you compare a Wix Air Filter to a comparable Fram filter, you will find more filter material in the Wix filter. More filter material = longer life, and better performance as a filter. Likewise the Wix oil filters have an anti-back flow valve, which will keep oil up in the engine instead of letting it drain back into the pan, so on the next start the engine still has oil. Just my 2 cents, and sorry I got a bit off topic. Sean 99 XJ Sport 2 Door, 4.0L, 5 speed, all stock. Daily Driver 79 F150 Standard Cab Short Box, 400ci, NP435, NP205, 35" SSRs Re: HIGH OIL PRESSURE??

If it worried me I'd get myself a new pump.. But I'd sure spend some time thinking about it before tearing the bottom off of my engine.. A genuine mechanical gauge telling me I had 75 lbs at hot idle would be enough to get me on my back...
