AC Delco Oil Filters

Don't ever use an orange Fram filter on anything. We had one collapse internally and we were having less than 20 PS! at the gauge. I assumed the oil pump failed, out came the engine, off came the pan and in went a new pump. Reinstalled the engine, same thing. The suggestion went out to try an AC Delco filter. I did, and instant 55 PSI. We discontinued all use of orange Fram filters in all race cars, tow cars, trucks, and anything we had that rolled. I've been using the Napa 1061 ever since with no problems.
