No, the OP question is one of generalities, not specifics.
A comparable automotive filtration question would have been along the lines
of: Should I change my air filter regularly? -- or---Are aftermarket brands
OK to use in your car. The issue isn't whether you should change it at 3500,
5000 or 7500 miles--- or whether you should use one labeled Toyota, Ford,
Fram, Acel or K&N.
There seem to be quite a lot of literal minded, simplistic thinkers in this
NG, and you sir, are one...
