Purolator One PL46128 for 6.7 Powerstroke?

[ZeeOSix]

That graph you posted shows the Boss at 99% @ 34um.

And the official M+H/Purolator Spec Sheet shows that same exact filter model with the ISO 4548-12 efficiency at 99% >46 microns.

Which you claim is a "computer generated model". Wouldn't that make Ascent's actual testing correct then now wouldn't it.

I said I highly doubt M+H has done a full blow physical ISO test on every filter model they make. If you know anything about computer models, if some of their Spec Sheets are determined by a computer model, then they are probably pretty accurate. Computer models need to be verified by actual testing to determine if the model is accurate or not.

I've discussed a few reasons about how an ISO test can show a +/- efficiency number based on the way the test is setup, and how far the filter is loaded up also has a factor too because of the debris sloughing factor due to dP as the filter loads up. But comparatively, the Boss was the worse in the test that Ascent did with all the filters ran on the same lab equipment, test setup and operational parameters.

lowest efficiency went to the wix. What is the OEM filter efficiency of this 6.7L Power Stroke & how does choosing a Boss filter as a replacement make a person "Ignorant" or have "lower efficiency"?

lowest efficiency went to the wix.

Correct ... my bad. However, they looked to be on top of each other at 20u and below.

Anybody seen any testing data on the new Motorcraft 2124S? Would be interesting to see how that stacks up? Or even the 2051S it replaced?

No efficiency testing seen. Only thing Motorcraft says is that it meets USCAR-36 which stipulates the efficiency must be 95% @ 30u or better. That would probably translate to around 99% @ 35u.

There’s a tear down on YouTube, the new materials used in the 2124S appears to be synthetic vs. the 2051S which was a cellulose/synthetic blend. The 2124S looks very similar to Donaldson P502503 which is 99% @ 15 microns.

I switched over to the Boss after doing a little research and coming across this vid, seems very non-biased/legit

Be cautious using the boss. Have had super duties come in saying about thier oil pressure gauge was on the lower side while idling and they never saw that before. Found that the boss filter caused it. With the already poor oiling system, it’s not worth it. It causes main bearing failure on them, that’s why it’s very important as well to pre fill the filter. It holds exactly one quart.

Ford upgraded their Motorcraft to the Boss media. I'm sure they've done testing to ensure proper pressures.

have done three runs on my boss’ 16’ platinum. 5w-40 and the BOSS. now it’s on 15w-40 with a OG wire backed Fram titanium. no failures to note, he hot shots on the weekend. truck has 160-170k on it iirc
