Good evening folks. Back home from brothers place out east. This P1 filter I'm going to guess was off my brothers Saab suv(same size as a trailblazer with the 5.3 v-8 engine. Oil was Carquest synthetic 5w30 also. He put another P1 as he said he has a few of these older ones left with more Carquest synthetic 5w30. Enjoy the pics












 
No tears, no shredded ADBV, AND it lasted for 5K miles?

It is a miracle...and that's all I have to say about that...
 
Yeah, I was glad the filter looked good

This 1 case proves Purolator is all good, and we have been wrong all along about tearing in these things... LOL
Got a bit wavy, yet held up OK.

Another pleasant Purolator surprise:
Although I had my doubts about it, the Purolator L16311 cartridge I recently removed after 9536 miles looks just fine, too. I see no reason it couldn't have gone considerably farther. Lest anyone jump to conclusions, it was made in 2012, and constructed very differently from the recent L16311. The media paper appears more similar to that of my Fram TG10358 than to that of the new L16311.
 
Sometimes you hit red, other times you hit black when playing Purolator Roulette.

I'm not much of a gambler, I enjoy reading about them but I'm done with them.

I am here to burst your bubble!
I have an old yellow P1 I have yet to cut open. But, before I cut it open, I PROMISE you there will be TEARS in the media! I have to keep the drive alive!
Well, I want my 15 minutes of fame on here too.
