Fram oil filter blue sealing wax Jiffy lube purple
Off-topic a bit--my prior owner said his last oil change was at something like a Jiffy Lube. There was an orange rough-surface Fram filter and a wad of blue sealing wax spanning filter and motor. Is this common?
Also, oil draining struck me as having a slightly purple tint. |

Fram oil filters are the worst to use generally. There synthetic ones are better, but Id stay away from them especially the ultra guard filters. Oil could've been royal purple or had a little UV dye in it for oil leaks. As for sealant, never seen anyone use it around a filter.
