Cat Oil filters
When we bought our 88 FC it came with 2 spare oil filters 1R0713. They
were very impresive: large heavy can that is one piece, die cast
threaded top instead of formed sheet metal. They were expensive,
about $13.00 Canadian. Today I went to my Cat dealer to get 6 filters.
Surprise they are now just over $6.00. However when he brought me the
filters they are just like any Wix or Baldwin filter. Crimped top,
shorter and lighter. I suspect that they are simply a brand "x" and
are not made by Cat. What a disappointment! I have emailed Cat to get
more info on this change.
