Wal-Mart Supertech oil filters are junk, see below and other places:
http://www.ntpog.org/reviews/filters/filters.shtml

Maybe the Supertech oil is good, maybe it isn't. Most things at
Wal-Mart are less expensive for a reason, and that reason is that most
of their stuff is junk. Look at tools or most anything else and compare
it to real quality tools, etc. Brand name products should be the same
whether bought at Wally World or elsewhere, but buying generic store
brand stuff is a crap shoot in my opinion. However, it is your car,
Deck, so do what you wish.

Matt, changing the label on a tool or bottle of oil does not magically
change their properties. Wal-Mart can sell brand name products cheaper
because they have mega-buying power, not because their label somehow
degrades the quality. Mobil1 from Wal-Mart is the same quality as Mobil1
from Pep Boys.

The only legitimate question is, what's in the SuperTech bottle? The MSDS
sheet says Pennzoil/Quaker state. Not exactly chopped liver.
