Who's oil filter?
On the advice of a highly-respected rotary mechanic in town, I have always used Mazda's oil filter in the RX-7. He told me that was the safest thing to do because of the higher oil pressures in the rotary, and Mazda's filters are designed for that.
After much research, I chose either Mobil 1 or Amsoil filters for my non-rotary vehicles. What say everyone? Will you stick with Mazda?
