Just so you know, all Carquest premium filters are manufactured by Wix, so they should look the same. We have used Napa Gold and Carquest Premium filters on all our tractors and farm trucks with out a problem. For oil we use Carquest natural oil in all the vehicles, which is ashland oil, who is owned by the same people as marathon, and its much less than marathon or ashland oil. Our 7610 got its first rebuild this year (its and 86 modle)and this is a turbo tractor, so its even harder on oil than a natural. This tractor gets a lot of use on it too, its the plowing tractor, batwinging tractor, disking tractor, etc. So what I am saying is the same thing all the others are saying, keep the oil changes up and you will be fine. The OEM filters are normally either manufatured by the same people as aftermarket filters or are very similar. In my opinion, OEM parts are a rip off, since the aftermarket filters clearly state on the box "meet or exceed OEM standarts", so how can a farmer these days afford to buy OEM filters for double of what carquest and Napa sell them for? Also, none of these filters will void your warrenty if the aftermarket place carries them yet, which may be your case, since a lot of newer equipment filters are not avalible aftermarket for a while, which was the case for our NH TN65
