[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1366035, member: 3828"] Mobil 1 comes in 5 quart bottles, which I like because it does take more than 4 quarts to refill an FJR. I'm also a scurrilous rebel and only change the oil filter every other time, per the FSM recommendation. Aside from that recommendation, I justify that lackadaisical practice by the fact that, even after changing the filter along with the oil, there is another quart of dirty oil left in the engine that you cannot drain without disassembling the engine. So, that few ounces of dirty oil trapped in the filter is pretty insignificant. YMMV [/QUOTE]
