[53' Stude]

Hello again BITOGERS

Off of a friends 210K mile 96' Nissan Maxima. He drives this daily also. Had NAPA conventional and this filter on for 3,300 miles. Put a NAPA GOLD and some Lubrigold 5w30 in and on. Enjoy the pics

Thank you, Adam

Looks good. So does the oil...clean

Looks Good.
Nice pics!
Thanks for the C&P.

 

[53' Stude]

You gentlemen are welcome

 

[anndel]

Looks great, thanks!

 

[Audios]

Looks good. These are one of WorldPacs cheaper filters but look really nice for the money.

 

[bullwinkle]

Looks pretty good, for a Purolator!

Some of those louvres don't look open near the top?

Some are facing down while others are facing up.
You can see clearly that the louvers are perfectly ok.

We must be looking at different pictures. Top row of louvers, quite clearly facing up, are pinched shut. If you'd like me to circle them in photoshop I'd be more than glad to oblige.

Ahhh [censored], I decided to do it anyways:

 

[53' Stude]

Good catch OVERKILL. I'll dig the innards out of the firepit tomorrow and take pics of center tube

 

[53' Stude]

Ok, went and got center tube out of firepit. You guys be judge

That first pic seems to show the group that I circled. How many would you say are closed in total Adam, is it just the 4 or 5 on that row or are there others?

OVERKILL, I counted way more than 4 or 5. That whole row of (insert dumb rear ended name here) shut closed. That's bad

 

[OVERKILL]

Yikes! That's what I was afraid of

 

[53' Stude]

Yup, Purolator quality gone down again

 

[maverickfhs]

Really good job on C&P, as always
