does the coolant filter actually do anything? look!

I've had the XDP water filtration system on my 6.0 since I bought it. And I always wondered if it actually did diddly pewpsicles. I was doing a coolant flush today and while waiting for the truck to flush out the last time I decided to have my way with that filter.

I've been running a wix filter on it for a while. I don't drive the truck enough to remember when I changed it last but...its overdue.

Here's the pix of the guts.


Water wouldn't seep in at all

So I'd say they are filtering stuff out.
