okay, how is this for a clear post:
i use motorcraft filters.
i have never had a problem using motorcraft filters on ford vehicles.
I did have problems with fram filters in the past on a ranchero gt., problems went away when i used motorcraft.
When i bought this f150 it had a purolatar filter on it.
it had a clogged oil screen that had to be replaced.
after i put that in i used motorcraft oil filter because of my good experiences in the past with them.
the purolatar oil filter may or may not have been part of the problem, i do not know.
i am aware that motorcraft oil filters are made my purolatar.
all i am suggesting is that if in any way the oil filter has anything to do with his problem, than replace it with a motorcraft oil filter.
