FRAM C134-PL Filter Design Change
#1
Just can't stay away
Just can't stay away

Having purchased several FRAM C134-PL filters for my car in the past, I didn't even consider buying any other filter for my car when I placed my most recent order.

Unfortunately, FRAM has changed the design of the filter and has apparently stopped including the big rubber gasket that seals the top of the filter canister.

Thinking it was a mistake, I ordered another one from another supplier, complained to my usual online parts vendor and they sent me two more, and not one of the five boxes included the rubber gasket.

Just an FYI to those who've previously been fans of the FRAM filters, the other options in a WIX or Purolator might be better choices as the gaskets are next to impossible to find separately.

It's a shame because I had come to like the fact that the FRAM filters have rubber washers on both ends that seem like they'd seal better than the WIX...
