What a looney, after being corrected multiple times on what is the filters bypass type vs what a ADBV is and still doesn't get it right

Would that be conoco Philips stopping aftermarket sales? Only big oil company I can think of that makes oem fluids for many oems In USA and has some aftermarket space through motor craft fluids but not a huge market compared to other brands on aftermarket shelves

I always read about people using crazy long extensions with a swivel to get the bolt. But would a old school half moon wrench work? Always been curious as that's what there meant for and metric ones are made now

Where the primary timing chain tensioners ever replaced with the cast iron ones? The plastic ones blow out the gasket which starves top end of oil also plastic tensioner doesn't ratchet and hold themselves tight like the cast iron ones do and start up rattle is common This is a Ford modular...

Cool old filter Hole design and spacing on base plate look like premium guard filters. Maybe Purolator sold them the tooling when they went to oval holes?

Here is a motorcraft 10w30 super duty diesel oil voa. Numbers are within Blackstone usual elemental errors but I don't know about the complaint of saying insolubles is additive falling out of suspension think that's just an error on labs end Otherwise looks how I expected it to be

I wonder if the external hex will interfere with two incoming oil holes? Linking adapter below. Its cheap enough to try as I have a lot of FL1 and FL400 filters to use https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fms-m-6880-b50

Ok awesome. They did come from a running truck but seemed to leak down into cylinders after shutting engine off

Yeah it is a 6cyl it's 4.9(300) in the f150 I cleaned the grime off one and it's gray where is the connector was. Guess time and heat discolored the plastic.. Can I pry the metal bottom away from the the plastic to check for rust? I'm adding couple pics of one of Injectors

They are a light tan/beige color

Ah ok didn't know there an expert here as I mostly lurk. These are from a 1994 Ford f150. think there Bosch EV1 style with fat metal bottom and top half is plastic where fuel rail attaches

Has anyone had any good luck with mailing injectors out to a place for ultra sonic cleaning and testing afterwards like spray patterns, leak check with high psi etc... Just wondering if anyone is to be avoided as a Google search brings up lot of places
