FL-400S in Canada Posted by TML [Email] (#2212) [Profile/Gallery] (more from TML) on Fri, 13 Jun 2003 15:15:29 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
This filter was supposed to be a PureOne filter, but either Motorcraft Canada uses a different supplier, Motorcraft in general no longer uses Purolator to supply it. Compared to the picture of the FL-400S posted by Jason0W-40, it has these differences: larger grip notches on the outside, and "Made in Canada" marking. Compared to a PureOne I also just bought:
-6 circular inlet holes, compared to PureOne's 7 smaller, oval shaped holes
-spring valve not visible at the bottom looking into the filter, as it is on the PureOne
-black rubber gasket as opposed to red PTFE treated gasket on PureOne
-much larger holes inside the filter
-302g mass vs 285g mass of PureOne
This may still be a good filter, all I'm saying is it doesn't appear to be a Purolator. Now that I already have it, I'm going to use it, but I'll cut it open and see what's what when I replace it. I'll try to post a picture as well.
