I just bought my first fuel filter for my 2004 from the local NAPA. It is completely enclosed with a sealed plastic bag. But I am confused. It says it was made by Wix. From other reading I did not think Wix made these filters. Any wisdom shared on this subject appreciated.

Just got off telphone with WIX. Very nice people. First question. Whats the mic. rating. 2mic. nominal. Second question. Do you make this filter? No we can't. It is purchased. Thank you very much.

Many thanks for the info. The fact that it is a Racor was what I expected. Actually, this is good news, as I did not want some other brand.

I paid $28.19 for the fuel filter, 10.99 for the oil filter, and 9.09 for the trans filter. Does this compare well with other places?
