Where do you buy your PF141 filters?

This is of course if you use the cannister oil filter. The PF-141 is the AC delco element.

I used to get them at Summit for a really good price but they don' t carry them anymore. I'm down to my last 4 so time to start thinking about where to buy them again.

NAPA....I'll have to look for the part #....usually keep in stock.

I just checked Autozone and Advance websites. Autozone has STP but they want $7.99 for a stinkin' oil filter! Advance only has Purolator and Fram but I would have to order as they aren't stocked normally.

I Googled PF141 and from the hits I got, I'm starting to think AC doesn't make these anymore. ?? I can't find them available anywhere. (at least no place that doesn't want 10 bucks for them)

I know a lot of people switched to the spin on's (sissy's ) but there has to be many dinosaurs like me that still use them.

Bob, if you have an A&A auto parts store down your way, they started carrying Wix filters. The A&A I deal with stocks the cartridges. I think I paid around $6.00-$7.00 for the last one I bought about 2 months ago.

The Napa no. is 1143, Wix is 51143.

While I was researching these, I found all the major brand part numbers:

AC PF141
Wix 85143
Purolator L30141
Baldwin P-18
Hastings LF211
Fram CH200PL
STP S200PL

I used to like buying from Summit, I think they were under $5 a piece! I used to throw a few in with every order I placed there.

Go to a heavy trucks parts place with those numbers Bob, I bet they have them. I think that filter is widely used, maybe in farm equipment too. They stock the center bearing for the driveshaft, its a common one used on many 2 piece driveshafts. They are also a cheap place to pick up grade 8 bolts.

Why would you want to buy AC Delco oil filters? They are now made in China. Buy Napa Gold or Wix.

 

[bobs409]

I like to keep my GM all GM.

The ones I have say made in Mexico. (not that it would be better than China)

Go with the WIX. IMO the best filter out there. And you can get them at Summit also.
