Did the first oil change on my 2015 Ford Fusion with 1.5 ecoboost. Little under 2100 miles and definitely had plenty of break in materials in the oil.
One observation I had was the factory oil filter. I know these are always different than the motorcraft filters, but the one that came off the fusion I am 99% certain I saw a dome end bypass. Got dark on me, but will cut it open next weekend.
Adbv was white. Had a coil spring on the bypass that looked like a normal dome end bypass valve. I don't recall the factory oil filter on my 2010 f-150 5.4 being that much different than the motorcraft fl820s other than the casing.
Motorcraft replacement is the fl910s, but it's running an amsoil ea15k51 now.
Anyone cut open the most recent Ford factory filters off the 1.5, 1.6, or 2.0 ecoboost engines?
