VALVOLINE V0-88 CUT OPEN

[53' Stude]

Off a newer mustang at work. Had this on for 5k and Valvoline blend 5w30. Put a WIX 57060 on and Safety Kleen 5w30 synthetic in and on. These mustangs no longer use a 3614/10241/51348 filter. 2.5 eco boost engine also. 10l on vehicle odometer. Stupid phone camera couldn’t focus in clearly on country of origin. I’d guess made in Vietnam

Nice! appears to be a Chinese made Premium Guard.

Always look for the ChiCom label..

 

[Dave Hess]

Very nice looking built oil filter.

 

[redhat]

Good looking PG. CLEAN motor too. But rightfully should be.

You are right Justin. Was able to zzzom in and see this

Yeah, I still see some Yellow can Valvoline filters too at work somedays.

Agreed, I've never seen a Valvoline made by PG before but they make so many I shouldn't be surprised.

My 2023 does, is this a 2024 or a different engine code than mine? Mine is an H but there's another.

H stands for Maverick Killer.

It’s. A 2023 but it’s the 3.5 engine not 2.3

I haven't either. Interesting times! I've thought about the same thing before you brought it up about PG mass producing & wondering if we'll see a decline in quality. It seems as though they are perfectly capable of it so far with all of the companies sourcing from them now.

So far so good. But with this board’s dedicated cutting, if they start slipping we should catch it.

In the 10+ years I worked for Valvoline I have never seen anything but champ made filters, I was around when the E-core style filters first came out.. Don't get me wrong I have been out of the industry since 2011..

I thought H was what you were suppost to put the gear shifter at?

Perfect

 

[Glenda W.]

Very nice! Thank you

 

[ARCOgraphite]

This lack of finishing on the baseplate threads looks a bit scary as it's on the outlet side and will not be caught before being pumped, but otherwise a solid looking piece all around.
Thanks for the c&p!

So if it's leak tested, how do they dry the media out before shipping it to the customer?

Oh, you mean leak tested with air?

 

[Hootbro]

Oh, you mean leak tested with air?

Yeah, they are leak tested with air pressure.

There was a video posted of a Korean oil filter maker that showed the automation of the finish filters going down the line and getting leak tested with air. It was a pretty interesting setup.
