Be sure to check with the Auto or Truck Manufacturer to find the correct SIZE of Oil Filter for your vehicle. Amazon's Parts Locator says that the Motorcraft FL820S does not fit my 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis, 4.6 Litre V-8 engine. This is incorrect. The fact is that the Motorcraft FL820S is the FORD-recommended filter for my 1995 Mercury engine, and is recommended in almost every application of the Ford /Mercury/Lincoln 4.6 Litre engine size.

The Motorcraft FL820S interchanges with the BOSCH 3410, the FRAM TG2, and the K&N 2010.

The Motorcraft FL820S has over 50 pleats, good flow rate, silicone anti-drainback valve, and steel end caps. It sells for under 4 dollars in the chain auto stores, and is an excellent value that's MADE IN USA !!

My car is driven in heavy traffic, desert temperatures, mountain driving, and trans-desert trips from Phoenix to L.A.

The standard FORD Motorcraft Filters performed just as well as the high-dollar types -and filtered MUCH better than the K&N, which has a very high flow rate (for racing), but the low 90% efficiency rating of the K&N makes it a no-no for extended oil changes. I wouldn't run a K&N oil filter for more than 3,000 miles -you'd just be stirring up dirty oil and pumping it through the bearings !! :>(

For my American V-8 engine, I have found the best value to be the Motorcraft FL820S Oil Filter and NAPA Full Synthetic 5-W-30, API "SN" rated engine oil -which also meets the latest GM "Dexos1" performance specifications. The quality of the oil filter allows for filter changing every 5,000 miles, and the engine oil is changed every 10,000 miles.

For maximum oil life, be sure your PCV system is working properly -Wash out the PCV Valve with Carb Cleaner, and check for collapsed and/or damaged PCV hoses. A leaking PCV system will suck un-filtered dirt right into your engine !!

Motorcraft makes very good quality filters. I've read several comparisons one with great deal of detail and meaningful research. The results always ranked the MC filters among the very best and usually much better than the brands you know by name.

The only problem was that I didn't do much research before my purchase. I found out later that I could have purchased these at my local Trak Auto for much less.

5 star quality. 1 star value on Amo.

Only filter that will fit my 93 crown victoria. I tried fram,but I could not get it to fit,as there is almost no leeway,so I went back to motorcraft,and have been using it for 20 plus years on this same car.

Honest reviews on Motorcraft FL820S Silicone Valve Oil Filter

It's a "Motorcraft FL820S Silicone Valve Oil Filter". It shouldn't be better/ worse than the same unit from a different supplier. It was cheaper at Wal-Mart. I expect it's better than Fram, etc. Is a Wix or other premium brand better? Ford made the truck and this oil filter. Seems a safe bet.
