Why is the little extra glue an issue?
I bet that filter is so clean because it was less than 5k miles and it was a hybrid.
The gas engine was not running the entire time.
Would be interesting to see one cut open with same miles on the filter from a EB.

Thanks for showing this video. I am glad to see this filter is built pretty solid. I will continue to use motor craft FL-910s on my Hybrid maverick. Nice to see how well it is made, much better than most.

Yeah he's done other motorcraft filters in the past and it convinced my that they are a bargain. They have all the necessary features and the build quality is good. If you are changing your own oil there is no reason to buy anything else if you own a ford. Unless it's really old and you don't care in which case walmart supertech filters are just fine - another brand he's cut open and shown good build quality inside.

I think it's indicative of a potential issue if the excess glue should come loose and get into the engine. Shouldn't happen. But it's probably not an issue and could well be a manufacturing one-off.

Wow they are $8.44 now. I stocked up on a half dozen FL910S for my Fiesta ST and I think the price was half that pre pandemic at Walmart.

Thanks for posting that link. I have kept the tiny factory filter with plans to open it up. My favorite part was his filter case cutter. Think I will have to build one of those...

Thanks for video. I too will build one of those cutters. I used to run the last of the oil drain through cheese cloth to see what was going on. Your cutter is a better way to go.

For the record, it's not my video. I ran across the channel when I was researching filters and liked his direct approach to evaluating them. While it's not always clear exactly what kind of filter media is used, you can certainly see the features and build quality of the rest of the unit.
