Hi,

You bleed off some of the crankcase oil and it is filtered to a higher standard than the orginal filters and this oil is returned to the remainer. You can get longer service interals for the oil or for me it would just give me better oil for the standard service life.

Hi there, A by-pass filter is a very fine , low in micron size that filters only about a litre a minute constantly while the engine is running. It is pressurised by the oil pump and pumped through the filter and back to the sump. the idea is to pick up the small particles before they are ground up by the moving engine parts. In a petrol engine, a good quality bypass filter will keep the engine oil the same colour as it was new with regular bypass filter changes. Diesels, the oil colour goes black because of the high carbon and soot produced but the oil remains clean. I have one on my Patrol's, cost is about $140 for the unit plus fittings and hoses to get it going and about $5 for the filter element. apart from removing the combustion solids, it also removes small particles of metal and of course dust, which can be a major in a 4x4 driven in dusty conditions. You can if you wish, lenghten your oil change intervals,double if you like and double spin on filters life also as the by-pass filter picks up the majority of the very fine particles that would normally clog the spin-ons. If you are thinking about keeping you vehicle for an extended time it will lengthen you engine life considerably. Hope this helps. Best regards Michael

Forgot to mention, Good for Turbo bearings too,, super clean oil with a by-pass filter.......
