[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 1011724, member: 52972"] Eddie, I don't recall when the big Fram counterfeit filters happened but my guess is that I first heard of it about 12-15 years ago. I have seen articles that claim it happened back in the late 1980's but I don't think it became a big news item until the late 1990's or early 2000's and even then it was buried within all the other stories of mass counterfeit products that where being imported into the US. I have even seen some people complaining that they have been getting counterfeit Fram filters as late as 2009?? I have even seen articles that claimed that some of the counterfeit Fram filters contained parts made from old Tuna cans...:bwahaha: Probably not that funny to someone who just blew an enigne because of a counterfeit filter. At least I hope they were counterfeit Fram filters..:grin: ...Rich [/QUOTE]
