It cost you one engine already and could have cost you the rebuild. It’s doesn’t seem like a matter of “if” it will collapse but “when” it will. And that’s been my experience with those canister oil filters on many types of equipment and engines. To answer your question, some have an internal bypass and some don’t. I’m not sure about
There is a reason Systems 1 put a sleeve inside their filter. To stop **** like that.
It’s hard to see in the picture but is there a screen or something inside to keep it from collapsing?
If it’s a race car and you have a 40 micron screen it will filter everything you need.
I know this. A screen filter is far less restrictive than other filters.
It’s great to filter flea shot out of the oil until the filter is so restrictive it causes the engine to not get enough oil.
You can test this with a gauge before and after the filter. I’ve seen 12-15 pounds more pressure with a 40 micron S1 filter.
That means 70 pounds was going into the filter and 55 was on the out to the engine.
That’s not very good.
40 micron filtered oil is far better than 20 micron filtering IF you are losing that much pressure across the filter.
that one but there is no mention of a bypass on jegs or summit. One thing I did notice is a 10 micron element and a 45 micron element. If you’re using the 10 it will clog quickly and they recommend cleaning it after every
