When I was in A&P school, one of the instructors had a Frantz filter on 
his car.  As part of our training, we did oil changes on aircraft 
engines (which are typically done every 50 hours of operation, or the 
equivalent of 3000 miles) and he had us do a change on his car to show 
us the efficiency of the Frantz filter.  The oil that we drained from 
his car after 10,000 miles was cleaner than the aircraft oil after 3000 
miles.  I think the Frantz system works quite well.  The actuality is it 
doesn't use a "toilet paper" roll for an element - the Frantz element 
looks like a roll of toilet paper, but the paper is very different (and 
a lot more expensive than Charmin!)...  If you put a roll of regular TP 
in the filter, it will dissolve and contaminate the system.  Here's a
