Has anyone had experience in changing their oil filter with the Napa Gold 7502 filter? Does it go on hard/tight? I ask because I took my '18 GT to a local Grease Monkey for an oil change today. I provided the oil and filter (oil change (labor) cost $44). I brought a Napa Gold 7502 filter, I've read that its a very good filter and commonly used on these coyote motors. However, the oil guy told me after trying, that it didn't fit my car, saying that it only screwed on a few turns before getting so tight that he was worried about trying to tighten it any more for fear of stripping it. He asked if I wanted him to try again, but a doubt was placed in my mind, so I said no, and they put one of their off the shelf filters on. Graciously, they did not charge me for it, so there was no profit motive. Now home, I can see no defects in the 7502 filter and I bought it from Napa, so I'm confident that it's not a bogus filter. Just wondering if he should have tried harder to twist it on. Thanks
