DJB98LX Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 I was pondering the thought of getting an oil filter relocator for my car, cuz it would be a lot easier, but looking at most the kits, the lines look kind of crappy, and from experience of working on older Blazers that have them, the lines love to leak. I was just wondering if anyone has one, if it leaks, and if you think it's worth while? Any inputs great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right about not having to change it often, but I got a bunk shoulder from working in a shop for too long, and I'm anal about ANYONE toughing my car. Watching rookies try to find the filters on those Blazers is a riot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you mention that, cause from a business standpoint, GM is not in good shape. I wouldn't be shocked to see them go under (or close to it) in the next 10 years. Seen how much their stock has dropped in the last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the difference is that GM's problems have nothing to do with cars. It has to do with how they run things inside their corporation. For example they give 100% full benefits to all their full time employees and if that person retires, they continue their coverage until they die. Did you know about $3000.00 of every GM vehicle purchased goes toward paying benefits packages. They are more concerned with employee satisfaction than making money, which is just bad business.

..SSR.. Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Not needed on a street car. Only time I'll run one is when I changeover to a dry sump. Once I do that, I'll be changing the oil every 1,500 miles or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
