Dem thar pleats got some beef on them for sure Looks very good as one would expect from a Mobil 1 oil filter. Thank you for you very good work here man.

While not cheap, Mobil 1 is a high quality filter. But we already knew that. They should make the Mobil 1 filters so they cannot be removed until at least 10K miles.

After Motorcraft, M1 is my go to oil filter. NAPA Gold is my 3rd selection. Thanks for the C&P.

Is it an optical illusion, or is the media pinched in at the center a little? Looks like an hourglass? If so, that's new for an M1 in my experience.

DR, does the center tube have holes in it, or louvers?

Champ labs non-ecore. Always the best. Never ever ever ha problems with them. Man that oil looks dirty for 5K miles. That's what my Wife's Subaru's oil looked like at 10K across winter. Was a solvent put in prior to this OC? Thanks - Ken

The image hosting site has trackers and my security blocked them and the images as well. I temporarily disabled them to see, but turned them back on.

Little of both, it's definitely deformed and a bit wavy in the middle, but not as bad as the pictures look.

You're welcome of course, it did do the job. Worth mention that it was in service for about 18mths and is an older filter, Oil was 5/30 EPHM.

After drying for a while and more straight on.

DR, I had a M-209 filter on my trucks engine prior to my last OCI. I'm happy to see it's a good looking filter.
Thanks for the C&P.
