FRAM ULTRA XG 3614 CUT OPEN

Good Morning BITOGERS


This filter is from member nthach. There was red marker writing on can but it’s faded. Filter looks good to me.

Stude,

Do we know the particulars? Vehicle, mileage, etc...

Thanks. I have a few of these waiting to be used in my vehicle.

Sir: I couldn’t make out the red marker on side of can

hopefully nthach will chime in. I have few smaller filters from him to cut and post as well

It was off a 2005 Sienna. I think there was 6K on the filter, and it was removed at the 138K mark. The oil used was Castrol Magnatec for that run.

Thank You Nthach for this. I’ll try to get motivated to cut your smaller filters soon

The XG3614 is what's on my 2017 Ford Fusion 2.5. Appears to be a fine filter.

Not a FRAM OCD fan at all but the Ultra gets my respect.

How did the filter get dented? Filter wrench?

I’m guessing it was on real tight so he used a filter claw wrench to remove it

Fram EGs seem to hold up better that Purolator made filters, and EGs have a decent efficiency and silicone ADBV. Really nothing wrong with them except a misguided reputation from many years ago.

I know the OP didn't ask...but I would have done 2 6000 mile runs on a Fram Ultra...
