"... only had ONE engine claim, that engine claim was caused by a customer who ran that open element filter for close to 15k miles, it was NOT the fault of the filter"

A related tid bit....

If an oil analysis is done to gauge the health of your engine and it is found to have the silicon levels above normal, it might be suggested to check your air cleaner to make sure it is in good shape and attached properly. That is the typical reason for high silicon.
