[QUOTE="gogittum, post: 487482, member: 27114"] On a long trip in 2003, I took my Diesel Dodge into a dealer in South Carolina for an oil change. When I went back in to pick it up, the service manager followed me out to the truck and quietly told me that Chrysler had issued a directive to dealers to disallow warranty engine work on trucks found to have Fram oil filters on them. I was amazed. I've used Fram filters now and again for many years and no problems, but I never used another one.....JIC. Apparently the much higher rate of flow of the Cummins diesels did something - collapsed it ?? - to the filtering material/media inside the filter, causing them to restrict flow and starve the engine of oil.
