No hastings, ever again |

I lost two 428s in one day because of Hastings oil filters. They were using cotton matting for filter media and it wouldn't pass enough oil to lube the engine. One of the 428s was on an irrigation well and was turning a steady 2000 rpm. It ran about 5 hours before it threw the rods on the 4-8 throw on the crank. It died and when I got to the well site there were parts all over the ground and a hole through the block that I could see daylight through. The other engine was in my pickup and it did the same thing on my way home that night, running about 60 mph. Da(rn) that ticked me off. Hastings sent a rep out and he offered me 2 NEW FILTERS! That's all. Sure makes you want to use his stuff. I bet you can guess where I told him to put his filters. |
