: I've used a few 7-10 year olds (filters that is) without any problem that I know of. The rubber seals on both ends on mine were still in 'new'-looking condition.
I've used oil filters for my British cars that date from the early
sixties (NOS 30+ years old). I've never had a problem. --but do inspect
the seals and make sure they're not rock hard.
