Installed 10/10/2015
Fill was M1 0w-30 AFE, just shy of 3000 miles.
Half a can of Lubromoly Mos2 mixed with third quart of TDT 5w-40 make up oil@ 1800miles
First 1200 miles was a 3.5 week road trip, remainder short trip driving. Mild climate.
Replaced with a M1-301 filter and M1 0w-40 oil
My cleanest chisel job yet. An old uncared for but sharp 1 inch wide chisel with tapered end pointing toward domed end, about 1MM below rim.
I never saw the 4 sided metal threaded plate before inside one can see on the left.
In between this and the can's lid, this jelly like sludge accumulated:
Here is the metal clamped seam. This is the waviest, most imperfect part of the pleating on the whole filter.
I never opened up a thread end bypass filter before:
The gasket stuck to the engine, first time I have seen that too.
The exposed exterior of the gasket appeared cracked with age, and remains partially deformed. It is a perfect fit over spray cans. I use them to retain the red straws. The upper surface was inside the filter, the bottom against the block:
The nitrile ADBV was still pliable, not hard, but not soft either.
The media seemed pretty strong. Here is the biggest particle I saw when I inspected all the pleats:
I cut most of the distance to the inner core, but I did rip some of it too near the seam, this shows the fiber like nature of the filter media:
I was not able to pull the metal endcaps off of the glue.
Not sure where this sandy grit is coming from. One can see the ferrous impression from a strong .25"x.25"x 1.25" magnet I place on the filter can exterior:
