Micro Guard MGL51361

A bit over 3000 miles/3 months with GTX 20W50. Any debris you see is from me spending 30 min cutting this thing open with an ancient dull hacksaw out in my driveway:

I'm sure Merkava is beaming right now.

....theres nothing more dangerous than a dull cutting tool.

Looks good for the short OCI it was run for.

Nice...

Looks good, though 3k mi/3m oci not a torture test. No bypass on this one, somewhat unique. Wide pleat spacing next to seam not an issue here.

Thanks for the pics.

Aren't these the ones with the bypass/ ADBV combo?

Looks good for 3000. I plan on running them (*Napa Silvers) at 3500-4000.

Some MGL, NPS and Silver use a combo valve. This application though has no bypass at all. Auto applications using this filter must have integral engine block bypass.

Very rare indeed. OP: Was this filter ran on your Nissan?

Yeah,I'd gotten it with an O'Reilly oil change special sometime ago.
