(Orange can of death for every motor even if you have a motor that doesn't mount in such a way that it needs a drainback valve because the filter material still sucks and you cheaped out on it. Why god, why???!!!)

Sooo on the FRAM subject,

Ive ran fram on both cherokees that I have owned and never had a problem. I literally beat the crap out of my last xj for 60,000miles before it spun a rod bearing or something in that area lol at 282,000miles. always changed my oil at 3,000miles religiously and before I acquired it my father used fram on it the 60,000miles that were put on it before I got ahold of it.

You killed your 4.0L after ONLY 120k and don't see something wrong with that?

Bosch distance plus filter. We have a kit that hooks up to the vac line from the brake booster to the intake. It's made by gumout. Doesn't do a bad job
