I thought you were looking for a filter with a non-nitrile combo valve?

on an e-core i dont mind the nitrile
why?
I'm still hesitant to use one of these but I will say
More and more post show they do hold up well,
I would like to know how well they filter? Only test I've
Seen with these showed really poor filtration, but
The construction seems to have improved

I bought a case of these filters not knowing they were e cores. I see no reason to worry about the design.
thank you for the warm welcoming! and for your insight.
How many miles on that filter?

Welcome.. and thanks for the cut and post.
I have a PF61E - longer version of the PF46E on deck for my next oil change on my Chevy.

5000 kms on it over winter. Mobil 1 0W30.
I put one of these on my jeep patriot today. Your filter's media is packed so tight I thought it was a P1(jk). You won't have any flow problems with 0w-30.

98% at 25 to 30 micron single pass.

1. This is a short OCI for the filter.
2. The filter has a separate relief valve making it easy for the manufacturer to optimize the nitrile ADBV.
3. Work hardening of the nitrile ADBV may take a few more kms to completely give up performance.
4. With temperatures below freezing, I would migrate to a filter with a silicone ADBV to get more positive valve function.

Though 3100 oci/fci not a torture test, pleating looks good on this one. Note the poppet type bypass on the ecore cage. GM says no to combo valves.
That filter looks pretty straight / solid. I see nothing to complain about here. All in all, a good value and capable of the OCI/FCI
I just put one of these on my Silverado. I noticed what I believed to be a lower oil pressure. I immediately put the usual M1-113 back on and life was good. I'll tell you one thing, the Mobil 1 is a [censored] of a lot heavier built than that e-core. As we all know, it is equivalent to the ACDelco UPF48R The other thing I'm not keen on is the fact that I don't think GM vehicles come with e-cores from the factory.

Unless you have an aftermarket oil pressure gauge it's all in your head. Factory gauges are not overly sensitive....
