    no more fleetguard filters ( unless on an isx ) and no more Baldwin filters PERIOD at speedco, not in north Little Rock, not nationally either I was told. The price went up too on oil changes, I compromised until this deal with the filters. They wanted to put lubefinder filters on, no deal, got2 keep it kickin’. They said they would knock $75 off if I bring my own filters. Hmmm off to TA/ Petro it is on this one.

    Go figure. Boooo for loves thumbs down... next they’ll be talking about you can’t watch the oil change.

    Luberfiner filters are fine. The only thing that matters is micron size rating.

    Yeah... I guess they’re common on Detroit’s but I don’t know nothing about them.

    I was in the Speedco in Jackson GA last month for two oil changes, my truck and my buddies, what a mess that place was! 6 hours for an oil change! They have fired all of the "techs", and only have one on staff, with a few helpers that really know little about changing the fluids in a truck. I will try the Speedco up here in Toledo, (Perrysberg) OH and see how they do. I have been going there since they opened. If it takes any longer than usual, I will not be going back. Very disappointed with my two recent experiences in GA.

    Unfortunately not. TA and or Speedco, or my driveway... I hate changing my oil, messy and then having to dispose of the old oil. I usually hit the TA over in Dexter MI. Get in there late at night and it is me and the tech, works out pretty good. And they let me in the pit to inspect the undercarriage. Good folks over there.
     
    jsnell, kurbski and Oldironfan Thank this.

    Just dump the old oil in your fuel. I used to do that sometimes. Some don't like that idea. But your fuel filters filter down to 10 micron.
