Had a strange experience with an oil filter yesterday. I changed oil on my "B" and replaced the Fram oil filter on the car with a new Bosch oil filter from my local Auto Zone. I started the car up and noticed that the oil pressure was only reading about 20 pounds. I immediately shut the car off and checked the fluid levels and looked for leaks, everything was good. I started the car again, same problem. This time I removed the Bosch filter and retrieved the Fram I had just taken off. The Fram on cold start had always given 70+ pounds of oil pressure. I put the Fram back on the car and started up, I was immediately rewarded with 70+ pounds of oil pressure. Has anyone else ever had this happen? It was a new one on me. I'm taking the filter back to Auto Zone on Monday and discussing it with them.
