Has anyone ever had a fram oil filter fail on them? Sun. I had an engine lock up only 140 miles after an oil change using a fram oil filter. Don't know yet if it was the oil filter failed or the pump. It went from 54psi oil pressure to zero at highway speed. I put the engine in neutral, reved it up and the pressure returned to 54psi. As soon as the rpm's dropped it went back to zero and as I was going down the ramp to get off the highway it of course went to knocking and locked up.
Any Ideas other than I got to replace the engine. |

Was the filter that was leaking oil? If not, it was the pump, which will need to be replaced. And if the engine won't turn over, ITS REBUILD TIME
