I finally quit using those cheap spin-on fuel filters from Autozone

Spent $140 on three filters over 6 months and had a injector pump fail on my 7.3 Powerstroke last Tuesday. The shop bill was $2,800 and the mechanic showed me how the bypass was stuck open. Anyone else had bad luck with the white box filters?

Gotta disagree with you there man. I've been running those same white box filters from Autozone on my 7.3 for almost four years now with zero issues. Changed every 5k miles like clockwork. Sounds more like the injector pump was already going bad and the filter just happened to be on there when it failed.

Could be luck of the draw with those cheaper filters.
