Any thoughts/input on fuel filters and oil filters that have been in storage for years (25+?) going bad and coming apart just over age? New, sealed in plastic and boxes. Just been stored and forgotten about. Seem fine looking at them...

Run them, or not worth the risk?

I don't think so, particularly if they've been well-sealed but as always, check and confirm that they're not falling apart.

Run them if they are in the original packaging!

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
