Bypass Oil Filters

Me too, i use Filter Technology , great results!! Michael

Someone on this forum warned me about them. They must have been in the minority.

What system do you have Michael? 1 or 2 roll filter and what engine is it for? Filtertechnology recomended the fmo1, single roll filter for the 10 litre sump for my GQ 4.2 diesel. How long does your oil last for?

Thanks

how do you fit to a 80 series diesel, were do you mount it how does it get its oil supply and how do you return the oil to the sump, do you leave and still use the original filter can you extend oil beyond say 5000k safe driveing mal b

Using their synthetic oil and filtration system, Amsoil maintain that there is no reason why you shouldn't get at least 80,000klm (50,000 miles is their figure; being yanks) from your oil.

I don't know what the dunny-roll brigade recommend;-))

I don't blindly trust the oil etc.......I send a sample away to Castrol for analysing every 10,000klm or so, just to be on the safe side.

Barnesy!! I use a car unit, the small unit and change it every 3000ks, i cant find the room in the 4.2 Patrol so as to stand it upright. I used to be an agent for Filter technology, I have a Fmo1, Fmo2, fmo3, all new old stock in perfect condition so if you can fit The Fmo1, maybe we can do something. The fmo1 is mounted to a demo unit but its never had oil in it. To Mal, you can use a tee piece on the oil pressure sender or there are various plugs in diesel engines that go straight to the galleries in the block, both pressure and return. Filter tech have a screw in plug thing that goes into the sump direct but unless you know the layout of the sump, their are better options.. Michael

probably bills that warned him LMAO

Michael from Moss Vale, I hope you check your email so you get this. You said you have a fmo1 for sale, how much do you want for it? Does it come with high pressure hoses and other fitting gear? Where is your unit plugged in to your vehicle? The mob at filter tech in Adelaide plumb one hose (in a 4.2 diesel GU) behind the alternator and the other one in the oil filler cap. Would it be able to be posted to SA you think?

Thanks
