Just wanted to see if there were was anything you ladies and gents might like to see posted in regards to lubrication?? This category gets worked over pretty well and most of you may have seen/read it all

If anything comes up, be glad to answer or reseach it for you

PS. Personal lubricants exlcuded......may be user but not an expert on the products

 

Don't want to start an oil war but whats your opinion on these videos. SInce in one they compair it directly to a Amsoil BMK-11 (i believe).

 

I can't get the videos to play. NOt sure if it's a problem on my end or there's. Do you know what they say as far as a comparison? Wish I could view it. Can everyone else see it?
Oh ya, nice banner by the way. Looks good

 

Nate it doesn't work for me either bud.

 

Must be a problem on their end I guess. Who knows.

Basically it's a video put out by FS compair the FS2500 to the BMK 11 and the stock oil filter. They run the engine with the OEM filter, then splice in the BMK-11 and show what the oil looks like. And then the final part that splice in the FS2500 and show what the oil looks like.

Customer of mine pointed that out to me about a month or so ago.

 

I looked over their website and pulled a couple of numbers we might use to compare. I'm sure you've seen these, but I'll post for other's benefit.
The FS2500 states they are 2.78 micron absolute, which means they remove 99+% of particles 2.78 microns or larger. I didn't find anywhere on there that this was done at ISO 4548-12 standards but am assuming it is??
AMSOIL's EaBP filters, according to this ISO, has an absolute efficiency of 98.7% at 2 microns, and soot removal was determined to be a time weighted average of 39% according to test method ISO 23556.
How does that compare? FS doesn't state a time weighted percentage, but I did find this "dry" article on bypass filtration on luberfiner.com and 39% was the best they could achieve and was 3x better than their previous model.

Take that for what it's worth.
My take......these two systems are pretty much comparable as far as efficiency. What comes into play is what is the capacity of each filter(how long will it last)? And then cost differences?? I believe the AMSOIL system can run $100-$150 less from the quotes that I've seen, but would have to verify that.

Can't go wrong with either one
