It's the same Amsoil Ea15k13 mentioned/pictured in post #45 above
Newest c&p. Approx 5k oci off a ‘23 odyssey
Used Amsoil EA15K13 C&P
- Thread starter MVAR
- Start date
This is my confusion
Rather confusing. Completely different builds. What do the date codes reveal about which is perhaps more recent?
I can’t interpret either logically
I thought someone in Fram Champ world could hopefully!
What's confusing about it? Looks similar to an Endurance with wire backed media. When was it acquired and installed? Same date code as the one in post 1, but made 2 minutes apart.

Good point. I did not go back to first post. But I can't interpret the actual date.
Acquired 2023-24 (keep them in a bin, no FIFO)
Yeah, that date code is cryptic, not the typical Champ Labs format. Does your Amsoil contact have any date code info?

The only reply I received - they wanted a picture of the can..............
Looks good thanks!
I’ll try and improve next time. This post was a spur of the moment thing and I was trying to be efficient. FWIW I couldn’t see any daylight between the blue bit and the spring. I don’t know if that helps.
Filter mag and samarium cobalt disc on the base.
The blue nylon/plastic piece is the actual bypass valve. They don't have an issue with gaps and leakage. It's the gap between the leaf spring and end cap when the leaf spring sits down into the center tube.
Ok. So lateral pics of a clean spring is what you’re looking for clarity with?
Shots like in the 2nd photo in post 71. But with the leaf spring cleaned off so it can be seen better for the stamping quality of the leaf spring around where it seals on the end cap. Or like this, but with a clean leaf spring to see what the stamping looks like.
