Here is that.
This filter was on the Ford for a short time.. about 1000 miles or so. Cleaning agents such as MMO and some HPL PCMO made it into the sump. Car had a fuel dilution issue "for awhile" and that appears to have been fixed today.
Here's the filter. Media looks a little muddy to me.. can tell you, car runs fine.. what changed? Fuel filter replaced today. No signs of any oil consumption nor HG failures. Has run rich. Oil "monitored." OK now on with the filter.
Everyone seems to knock Fram, and talk about cardboard this and that. Is the muddy area (muddy oil) the cardboard part? I don't yet know how to extend the media part, as other cut-opens have done.
Fram hate doesn't seem very warranted on this one, in my opinion.
