Thought I would share this stamped number information from a Fram cartridge filter that fit's on a 6.0L Power Stroke. The decoder thread did not help on this one unfortunately. I bought x3 of these off ebay for cheap & ended up being older filters.
On a side note: I have some Purolator One's too for this truck & I've reached out to M&H for a spec sheet but they are too old (10k version) & they only have the current spec sheets. I showed them a photo of the date code on those ones, which the decoder thread did provide assistance on, & they replied they were 7 years old & they state a 5 year shelf life on oil filters. I'm curious as to what Fram says for shelf life but I forgot to ask them. Anyways, here's the odd information on this Fram Tough Guard.
Code: 16016 M2
Decode: 1st shift, 6th Month, 2016 year, Plant 2
THIS IS WRONG KEEP READING
