With too much time to think during the winter -- I wonder why, when we suffer a major engine failure, we end up with debris in all the oil passages. We do have full flow filters on our engines, wheth

There are actually two valves in the TRactor motor (as in most engines). The adjustable one dumps oil back into the pan to limit pressure rise; but there is also a fixed one that will bypass the fil

I spent an interesting hour tracing out the path in the filter head, figured out the answer to the question, and got several replies that were either right on or close to it. Plus a couple of guys wh

me too interesting. Hven't tried that but I might. A really neat idea that I'm going to do also. The commonly used adapter sends very high pressure oil to the cooler. Not needed. Greg's part does it

If you were using very heavy race oil, like straight 50 sae or possibly 40 sae, and it was very cold in the early morning when the engine was first started, the pressure drop accross the oil filter e

The only engine failure I have had in 16 years came after the installation of the alloy filter adapter. I would never say that it 'caused' the failure, but am begining to wonder if it didnt contribut

What system does Ford or other manufacturers use that allows them to fit non-bypassing oil filters to their engines. The two styles of filters are clearly not meant to interchange as they have differ

While I've never wrenched on a Ford, I believe they have to run a bypass somewhere. It might be in the engine (as with our TRactor motors) or it might be in the filter cartridge, but it's somewhere.
