Did not notice any light coming through bypass area.

oooo the valve is blue

What did you replace it with? The 7317 should fit wherever a 6607 goes

Awesome thanks for sharing. Stout little filter surprised to see metal end caps

Nice post and nice result but we need to have date code to help interpret and country of manufacturer if it is on the can.

Not to nitpick but 'I' would have liked to see seal area side view in more contrast to darkness. Large light in pic makes contrast in that area difficult to see in pics. In any case, I was not as fortunate with the close cousin SuperTech filter MP7317 c&p, light seen.

Element itself looks fine.

Thanks for c&p.

^^^ To add, should also wipe the leaf spring clean so the sealing area can be seen better.

I used a smaller pocket sized flashlight with all lights off but no noticeable light came through so the picture would have been very dark, so decided to use bigger light as seen in pictures...After reinserting spring/bypass into filter there is now a visible ring of light that can be seen. It could be possible that a film of oil was blocking the light before, but I did clean it with contact cleaner pryer to taking those pictures to wash away any oil.

Fram style date code. Thats the 272nd day of 2023. Check the date code reading sticky thread.

Maybe update the sticky because that doesn't exactly match the Fram format.

Apparently, in the can there is 70lb of force from the leaf spring.

I poured oil down the center tube of an intact filter to check the leaf spring integrity. A harder check in a used filter but still possible and a more definitive check imo.

The date part of it does …"3272".

How are you making that conclusion ?
