Number of pleats the same? Maybe higher temperature glue in use?
I just find it very hard to believe they'd go to the trouble of making two different part numbers solely to overcharge ///M owners. |
No worries, all my synapses firing together nowadays is becoming a rare treat.
Not sure if I like the newer system better or not? A decent amount of old oil is left sitting there in the housing when you pull out the used element. I usually just soak it up with a couple disposable blue shop rags. Plus you need to be careful not making a mess when getting rid of it. The older system was inverted 180 degrees with a metal outer canister and was a bit harder to deal with initially, but the residual old oil was collected in the canister and easier to dispose of.
