FRAM ULTRA XG8A CUT OPEN

[53' Stude]

Ok, last filter cut open for today. Pretty darn heavy too, so I’d say it did some work especially by the black gunk/crud mass at some end of can. I’m impressed

from member getawheel also

Fram Ultra is one of my favorites.
Thanks for all the filter porn we had today.

You had one busy day today bud -- the Ultra looks really well constructed once again.

Maybe it's just the light, but that oil looks like it has some antifreeze and/or water in it.

 

[53' Stude]

Looks awful black and nasty to me. Maybe getawheel knows

Thanks for the C&P @53' Stude and
the supply @getawheel.

Thank you for the C&P Adam. You were busy yesterday.

Every one of these I've cut has had the inconstant pleat spacing.

yeah, I have almost 13k on the XG3614 on my Camry. Probably push it to 20-25k this time.

How many miles is on that filter? That's a lot of crud in it.

Judging by the decal on the filter that's an old one from at least a few years ago. So yeah lol

All I saw is “unknown” so maybe getawheel knows the history of the vehicle

This came off my ‘90 Mustang when I bought it. Car had been sitting for several years, not sure how old this filter is. After a couple OCI’s everything has looked good from this engine.

Pleat spacing is not a concern on wire backed synesthetic media. The wire backing will keep the pleats from moving from oil flow.

That filter is around 10 years old judging by the old label

Thanks for the C&P. Ultras are my go to filter.
