What's up with that? Being around motocross I know of Amsoil and the claims that you can run their 2-stoke mix at something like 100:1 compared with normal oil ratios of 40:1. But an engine that never needs oil changes?

Why some of you guys still spend double and triple the cost of filters because its easier to buy at a local store when a few clicks on line can save alot of loot is beyond me.
Your already on the internet so save yourself some $$.
The price of fuel is going up in case you haven't noticed.

You can still buy 1 at a time and save some $$$
For ex: before i knew i paid $70 for fuel filter when oilguard.com has them for $35.
AIr filter at a Speedy oil change qouted me at $140 installed.
I buy from oilguard for $50 and install myself in 10 minutes.
Buying more filters at 1 time gets you better savings and sometimes free shipping plus no sales tax so there is no reason to buy at autopart store,walmart or Ford-IH dealer unless you have $$ to waste.
I don't.
There is now 2 sponsors of this site that have smokin deals on filters.
