I was wondering if its ever possible that a piece of the metal screen backing could get loose and end up in the engine? Im sure it would be extremely rare, but it would probably really screw up an engine
I think both filters look good and are well made. I would happily buy either one.
Happy New Year to Pete and everyone else!
Great Job, Pete! Thanks for sharing, Warren! I used Fleetguards in my old F350 witt the power stroke. I didn't know they made them for passenger cars. I do prefer a fluted can as I like to use the filter wrench type that fits over the dome end like a cap. Both have really nice media thought the Donaldson seems to have a slight edge.
Sloppy design filter media very messy! Neither one I would use since both to me look like heat insulation layers on a rodent cage.
Both have my preference of coil spring and both have synthetic filter media. The Fleetguard has a silicone anti-drainback and more filter media – I would go with that one by a small margin but both look like good filters.
Good morning Pete. ☕☕🌞.Happy New Year ! Another great video. I am looking forward to your videos for 2025. Take care and hope you have a good weekend my friend.
Both look well made, and the best-looking filters I've seen with the Mexico coo. Been seeing some poor-quality filters with that coo. I'd use either but likely favor the FG because of more media, silicone adbv and like the baseplate design better. But to be fair, the FG is a longer filter. Thanks to Warren for the filters, and you Whip for the vid. Inquiring minds want to know though, how come didn't they didn't "duke it out," and didn't "get ugly folks?" 😁 First OFF of the new year. 🎆
Thank you so much for the flute count and filter width! I appreciate it! 😊
Both look good Pete. 😊. Great video
Both seem very well made.
I think the screen is metal, it's just a non-ferrous metal. Probably aluminum. Try burning it. I'd use the Fleetguard.
Why do i love oil filter reviews so much??😂 also i cant seem to get away from purolator. They seem like high quality filters
Good filter media, real coil spring, I don't like the bypass valves only – spot welding, which hits these weak strips of tin – is very unreliable, and if torn off the base plate can cause trouble.
Both look good ,but going with the fleetguard as I don't use a universal oil filter wrench to install or remove oil filters & only use socket type oil filter wrenches
One thing I noticed after Pete opened up the two filters was that the Fleet Guard inlet holes direct the oil downward and the Donaldson inlet holes are configured at an angle to direct the oil off to the side. Someone who understands this stuff better than I might be able to explain if this makes any difference. Thanks Pete.

Hi Pete, thanks for doing the inspections and comparisons on the many makes and types of oil filters. I wanted to ask you why some filters, the bypass is 11psi to 17psi? Does that mean that at 11psi it starts to simmer/open and bypass some oil while at 17psi the bypass valve is fully opened? Just curious.
I wonder if the spots on the Fleetguard media are welds to hold multiple layers together, similar to the spots on N95 and KN95 face masks made of polypropylene fabric?
Put the Donaldson media in the Fleetguard and it's a winner.
Great review as usual, Whip. Happy New Year 🎉
I Think I'd go with the Donaldson. The bypass PSI was the maker for me. Other than that, they both seem well manufactured.
Happy New Year to all. I've often wondered if between nitrile and silicone anti-drainback valve material, there's any real difference in performance. I've cut open filters with 5k miles and a year old and the black rubber is just as flexible as new. I think people can be sold on anything "better." Think about it… when the engine is off, the valves are in their relaxed, fully sealing positions, then at operating temp, will become a little more compliant. Unless you're in deep-freeze climate, I don't think it makes any difference. Orange is pretty and almost always more $$.
I personally use the Donaldson in this video on my 79 Subaru wagon (engine swapped and heavily modified). I used to use a Ford right angle oil filter adapter to use a PH2 size filter, but it hung too far down and was far too easily damaged, so I switched back to a filter with a small enough diameter to fit directly on the oil pump and not hit the block. This Donaldson was the only small diameter, 3/4-16 filter with a 99 percent efficiency under 20 microns. For the most part, they simply don't exist in sizes this small. One of the major benefits of going with a filter with synthetic media is better efficiency at a lower micron rating. For that reason the Donaldson is the clear choice for me. There is no reason to buy the Fleetguard when a Fram Endurance, Ultra, or Titanium has better performance, at probably a lower cost, and with much better availability at local stores. Whereas the Donaldson really is something unique in this small of a size, and I think worth buying.
Good Video ! The Donaldson has Finer Filtration but , My Guts telling me it's too fine. 17 Microns is very tiny.
i Think i'd Alternate between both Filters every other oil change & Watch my oil pressure on a guage with the donaldson.
i'm Leaning towards Fleet guard 3-5,000 miles.
if Your real anal about your oil changes every 3,000 then you could do donaldson.
i Like the larger capacity of the Fleet guard for daily driver.
i'd Probably run the Donaldson for 1,000 miles as a cleanup oil filter after an oil change.
Donaldson looks too restrictive for daily use. could have oil pressure problems especially if it's very cold out / thick oil.
Donaldson would be very nice as a Filter on an external oil filtering system.
