In Japan, the B210 was called "Sunny". I owned one with underdash A/C. That thing was simple to work on, got great fuel economy, and was reliable. Sold it for what I paid for it a year later.

Back in the fall of 1982 I was 16 years old and had just gotten my drivers license and actually took a college class in FORTRAN at Monroe Community College in Monroe, Michigan. It was pretty stupid! In the evenings, two nights per week I would go there in my dad's 1980 Chevette. Dad of course, put K-Mart tires on his cars. And of course all the time we had flat tires. There was no construction going on in the area, they were just cheap tires. On both the Chevette AND mom's "Bimini beige" '77 Coupe de Ville d'Elegance, I stood on the side of the road and installed the spare tire. TWICE in one semester from September to December did I use the spare, and wound up late for class. My dad worked for Detroit Edison as and engineer at the Monroe power plant. We weren't wealthy people, but we certainly weren't poor and my opinion of my father is that he never understood the word "value". Yes, you can buy something very cheap, but if it lasts half as much as a product that costs 25% more, then you've lost money. The fact that he bought a Chevette at all should show this clearly~
WOW a flash back to the past i have not seen a K - Mart oil filter in years and yes i have bought their K oil filters and K oil brand before .. That's when K - Mart was a big box store back in its days The K - mart auto center K- Mart tool brands K-Mart oil and oil filters and you could buy push mowers and lawn tractors and garden equipment
The quality of this filter is right on A plus. Notice how thick the treated paper filter element is Sir. I would bet it could be used right out of the 44 year old package. Nice video fella too. vf
@@victoryfirst2878 next weeks video is a apx 44 year old sears filter and it’s built better then this one I think. The sears filter would fit a 1970s Toyota Corolla
If the listing on the went up to 1982, the filter is no younger than 1982 making it 42 years or possibly a bit younger than that. I still have a K-Mart branded under car creeper in my shop. I had lots of K-Mart auto products back in the day. Thanks for the flashback.
With that string, it is probably a Purolator made filter, they are the main one that used a string like that. Also, if I had to guess, the metal disk on the base end is part of a bypass valve setup. I have seen several different styles of base end bypasses, but this one is different than any I have seen in the past. Or it may just be there to assist the ADV.
Yeah right , be nice to know who made it for kmart USA and id say it was Fram . The company that made mine J.B.Morgan & Co. pty ltd 1154 Sydney rd Fawkner Victoria under license to FRAM corporation Providence RI usa . Google street view the address and you will see a derilect factory , small sign out on wall J B morgan . just like so many australian manufacturing companies closed and gone due to overseas made items , very sad indeed . Print / artwork on mine differs from yours. The filter is a piece of history from a era when people were real do it yourselfers . people collect all kinds of things and there are filter collectors out there .

Next week’s video is a 44 year old sears oil filter cut open. It looks a lot better then this kmart filter
i believe that thin metal disk on top was a metal diaphragm used to aid the rubber drain back seal just enough pressure to help...lolol

Looks like a Purolator. The string is the give-away.
that k in kmart is still used in australia today
Ohh, there is only 1 small kmart left in the US
@@dfields9511 kmart and target have the same popularity here, kmart is basically everywhere
I wonder who made them for K-Mart?
@@haneyoakie14 yah I wondered that myself,
Looks like a purolator
Where was it made ?
package and the filter does not state where it was made.
