In the past few weeks there have been a few small changes in products I thought I’d sum up here in a post:
New Slip Lock™ Tube Packaging
The Amsoil Slip Lock additive changed packaging and is no longer found in bottles but tubes. Please note that tube packaging is indicated by the suffix TB. Now that AMSOIL Slip Lock™ is available in tubes rather than bottles, its product code is ADATB rather than ADABA.
Amsoil SDF88 Oil Filter Available
The EaO88 Oil Filters for the Ford 6.0/6.4L Power Stroke Diesels was cancelled a few months ago. I don’t know the exact reasoning, but rumor has it the design with the Ea Media wasn’t up to par with what Amsoil wanted them to be. I understand that a newer model is in the works, but no date of release is known yet. We had access to Donaldson and Wix for this filter, but these will no longer be available as Amsoil has rereleased their previous SDF88 filter to cover this application. If you used the Amsoil filter before the Ea Oil Filters were released, then you know the media it has. Still an excellent filter, and the current cost on them is better than the costs we had for the Donaldson and Wix replacements. Don’t feel you’re settling with the SDF, or Super Duty Filters. These were the norm for Amsoil for many years and ranked as one of the top filters on the market.
Amsoil notice on this filter:
AMSOIL Now offers AMSOIL SDF88 Filter for Ford 6.0/6.4L Power Stroke Pickups
The AMSOIL SDF88 Oil Filter for Ford 6.0/6.4L Power Stroke Diesel Pickups is now available. The SDF88 oil filter features cellulose media and is designed for OEM-recommended change intervals. It is compatible with the AMSOIL BMK11 and BMK21 By-Pass Systems and replaces Donaldson P550528 and WIX 57312 filters. The Donaldson P550528 and WIX 57312 filters are discontinued.
