Great video comparing that old Lee filter with a new Motorcraft. Back in the 1970's I always used Lee filters in my AMC Sportabout and my Dads Plymouth Valiant. I used to buy them at "Two Guys" department store where people would change their oil in the parking lot making a mess on the ground. I remember the AMC dealer telling me they were junk filters and I should not use them. However that AMC went over 200K miles and it never used any oil so they must have done a decent job. They disappeared around here when the discount stores like Two Guys and Caldors went away. I wonder what ever happened to the company. I think Champion bought them out but I am not sure about that.
Thanks for Sharing!👍
Ha ha Two Guys! I remember. I looked it up. It's now Target.
That FL-300 fits my Dodge with a slant six and I've used it a couple of times. But I'll have to give credit to the Lee for having features I didn't expect to see for something that old, like a bypass valve and painted leaf spring.
My dad used to use lee oil filters back in the 80s when ames department store carried them
Morning Pete,
I was excited to see the Lee filter being compared to the Motorcraft filter in this video. My friends back in the early 1980's believed that Lee filters were junk with no filter media. Department stores like Zayre's and Caldor's sold them and I used them. Lee filter looks good to me! I remember my Dad saying" They would not stay in business if the filter was no good".
Glad to see that my buddies were wrong on this one. Awesome video!
Have a nice weekend...
Good Morning Kevin and Thanks!
Have a Nice Weekend also👍
The LEE did pretty well for being 40 + year technology ! Funny i caught the whip city auto parts store sign ! 😝👍
Haha, good catch Scotty😊
Wow Lee filters never heard of them!! Thanks WhipCityWrencher for taking me back in time
You're Welcome WrenchingMafia😊👍
Back in the 60's & 70's LEE filters were every where. Found at most all big box stores of the day. The orange Fram was a step up.
Particularly in NJ!
Holy crap a Lee oil filter. Geez I think even the local corner store sold Lee filters they were everywhere I se to use them way back then
I would say that for the era, the LEE filter looks like it was a good brand. Box art is neat.
Pleat spacing uniformity on MC, poor. Ugh. Yep, the Lee spacing much better. Back in that day I'm sure I used a Lee filter or two. It looks decent. Thanks for the video.
You're Welcome faxmen09👍
Wow, I can’t believe the quality of the Motorcraft filter. The pleat spacing is ridiculous. Thanks for the video!
You're Welcome! Thanks!👍
Love the Time Travel video's. Even though LEE oil filter is bigger and has more filter media, it's most likely made of paper compared with Newer Synthetic Media. Motorcraft wins this one. Wish could go back in time and give the Mustang Owner the Newer Motorcraft Filter with Royal Purple Engine Oil.
😊👍
For a 47 year difference, I was expecting the Lee to be considerably different.
I was rather surprised at how both are quite similar.
Holy Cow, I remember Lee oil filters! I used to get them at ADAP for my Impala. Damn I am old. The Lee looks like a really nice filter, nice to know I was using a decent filter back in the day. We used to do 3K oil changes back then and I am sure that was state of the art in filter technology, Now I know why they said to do 3K oil vhanges. I do like that upper bypass valve but damn those pleats on the Motorcraft look like it was assembled with a hangover.
I wonder what happened to Lee filters, I stopped using them after I got my Toyota and started using Purolators back in the mid-80's
I TOO, remember Lee filters! I always ran Delco Purolator in parts on my Chevies. 😁
@@riceburner4747 They just disappeared. They were priced right and The ADAP was close by.
Thanks, Jim👍
True, the Motorcraft pleats were horrible.
@@WhipCityWrencheranytime Pete! I’m actually surprised at this other Motorcraft filters you’ve opened up have been pretty good.
I was disappointed in the Motorcraft filter because the threads and the pleat spacing. The Lee didn't look bad at all. Thank you.
I haven't seen a Motorcraft filter that poorly built in a long time. I wonder who made it. It resembles the Auto Xtra filters, but you'd expect that from a $1 filter.
You're Welcome👍
I think the Lee oil filter probably works great in the old pushrod engines just my opinion.
Two filters with base end bypass valves. The good old days.
😊
I worked in an auto parts store back in the 80’s and this video brings back memories. We carried AC Delco, Motorcraft, Fram and of course the store brand which was manufactured by Puralator. We sold more Fram and Motorcraft than any of the other filters. I stuck with AC Delco because I had a Chevy. Thanks for the great video!
You're Welcome and Thanks👍
AcDelco is a piece of crap.
Thanks! I forgot about Lee filters. That Motorcraft media spacing looked terrible on top of that as a retired machinist those motocraft threads or lack of make me cringe. I stoped using motorcraft filters on my old 2000 f150 a few years back because it seemed like they were going downhill.
You're Welcome! Thanks for your feedback👍💯
Nice comparison between the Lee and Motocraft, awesome review Pete! Have a great weekend my friend, take care 🙂
Thanks, Merri!
Have a great weekend also👍💯
love these vids
Thank You!👍💯
Interesting you have an FL-300. My '86 Turbo Coupe uses that one. I switched to Purolator ONE series PL14670 recently. Speaking of Lee filters, there was the time when Mount Saint Helens eruptured and Paul Harvey had mentioned on his radio show that the only cars that survived breathing in all of that ash and soot were the ones using the Lee Two Stage air filter. Do you remember those air filters?
We even had discount places like K-mart, King's, and Mr. Wiggs selling the Lee oil filter in the 1970s. Hire's, maybe NAPA, Nationwise, and Western Auto were the auto parts stores selling Lee filter products.
Cool!, Thanks for Sharing!👍
I don't remember the Lee two-stage air filters, but I'm sure I've used a Lee oil filter once or twice.
Great video Pete! Glad to see you do a Lee filter. I've always wondered how well they were built, looks pretty good for the age. Have a great weekend!!
Thanks Dan!
Have a great weekend also👍
They ran such heavy weight, sludgy conventional oil back then that maybe they needed the looser media.
Pretty disappointing showing from the motorcraft though. You have to almost try to have spacing that bad.
The Lee definitely has the cooler graphic design, but I like the elimination of unnecessary plastic in the modern packaging.
Another great video!
Thank You👍
Thanks friend I’m a little older than this filter 👍
You’re welcome 😊
As to the Lee filter, Zip-Codes were only introduced 11 years before in 1966. So, def vintage.
Lee filter looked like fairly good quality. I thought of them as “cheapies” back in the day because they were sold in many department stores and were lower priced than the more prominent brands.
👍🏻
6:01 the MotorCraft filter got more gaps on it then Stacey Abrams teeth & more glue then fixadent covered dentures
LOL🤣
Like 90 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
I’m not sure what the people at motorcraft are thinking with 2 threads on that baseplate
👍
Awesome review, Motorcraft looked decent.
Thanks, Chris👍
I remember when I was 16 and had my first car (1975 Chevy Monza) changing my oil and buying a Lee filter. Whatever happened to those?
The Florida pool pump motor repair guy 32750 approved ! that was good info & see WCW far out man ☮🚽🚿💊🩹💰📸🎸📻👙🕶🎱🎉🚀🛩🚁⛽🏍🚜🦆
Thanks, Jay!👍
Wouldn't choose for ether ones
If pleats were teeth that MC filter could eat corn on a cob thru a picket fence.
I haven't seen a Motorcraft filter with a rubber anti drain back valve in 20 years. I wonder who made that one.
Still made by Purolator, the FL1A also has a nitrile anti-drain back valve.
Thanks, Don👍
Aren't they all rubber these days or is that something else? Usually they are like a redish color I think while this rubber one is black.
Where can we ship you our oil filter for review?
Sure, send me an email to, Poker4me007@gmail.com
That motorcraft looked terrible. No care at all to how it was assembled. The Le had terrible media but much more care in its construction.

I try and make an oil filter inspection video every Friday on this TH-cam channel, Thank You!
the worst looking motorcraft filter i ever seen.there ususally much better than that one.
The T V show Hows that made had a version on making oil filters. Watching the production line there were 5 different names on the filters passing the camera.
Cool Show, I don't see that show on TV anymore but I used to watch it. I think most of the stuff they showed on there was from Canada.
