I have no knowledge of Wix fuel filters, but that is the first bad thing ive ever heard about their oil filters. Everything Ive read (and Ive read a LOT) indicates that they are one of the best oil filters available. |

I've never cut any fuel filters open but I have cut several oil filters open of various brands. From what I've seen Fram should be on your list of filters to avoid.
