Few old oil filters found

[53' Stude]

Have two old FRAM Tough Guards TG 16 that I found at goodwill store in West Virginia and an old Purolator L14570. Paid 50 cents each.

The Purolator is made 2004 as per date code. The FRAM I bet is from mid to lte 1990’s

Thanks, Neat to see how they fair over time.

You should open up an oil filter museum at your place!

I may run the Purolator. The Tough Guard I bet has metal screen over bypass valve too.

That's awesome Adam! To be honest I had no idea how they looked back then & am just seeing these pics of these old Purolators. I guess these filters sit around in someones garage or house for many years unnoticed. That one looks to be in good shape still. I like the mirror finish label on the can. Yeah, after you use it cut it open if you can. Interested to see what's inside whenever you're done.

Nothing says Tough like that metal screen over the bypass valve, ready to stop grenade fragments.

I don't see a micron level associated with the 96% efficiency. Probably at 20u and greater.

Bought my first property & 14x70 mobile home @ a young 18 yrs old.
Sounds like you had your act together. Thanks for your service.

You are welcome sir

Must have found a Goodwill that does not enforce their no "Auto Parts" policy. All the one around me will not take in donated filters.

Same efficiency as now. What's the date code on that old TG?
