Fram TG3600 C&P from 05 Liberty 3K run with VRP

[cb4017]

Off my daughter's 205K mile Liberty. Thought I would try VRP to see if it would help with oil consumption. We ran it for just over 3K miles. No improvement in oil consumption noted so far. Filter did fine. A little carbon debris noted in the pleats and bottom of the can. VRP with a KN 2009 filter went back in.

Run it for 3 more OCI's!

Run it for 3 more OCI's!

That's my plan.

That's my plan.

Keep us posted on your results.

Yep. I'd say it's starting to work.

I would recommend against using that filter for 3 more OCIs. I suppose it might be possible with some duct tape and RTV silicone.

Some folks are spooked by fiber end caps but Fram seems to have got it right a long time ago.
