She’s no mail-order Russian bride, but what does one expect on a catfish budget? Did the job, all that can be expected. Thanks for the C&P Adam!

How about cutting out the filter media and opening it up to inspect the individual pleats for debris and metal?
Of course, that tells you more about the engine and its operating conditions than about the filter.

Oil still looks pretty clean for 5,xxx miles.

Was some tiny bits in can but not overly dirty.

I thought about it but my fire pit has been feeling left out so I made a fire with 6-7 old filters while enjoying some Jim Beam and a Bells HAZY IPA

Not sure what they paid for it, but, they go for $11.29 at AAP-thinking there are some MUCH better filters for less $ for that application. Looks good enough, I guess.

Yeah, you can get AC DELCO filter at Rural King for I think $7.99
