- Good afternoon group Last weekend I changed my oil and filter. Not long after I did so (25-50 miles later) I noticed that my oil pressure dropped below 40 psi while driving down the road. I used a Fr

- Hi Doug, It's possible that a restrictive filter could drop the oil pressure 10 - 20 psi. Most filters have a built in pressure relief/bypass valve set at 10 - 20 psi to prevent complete blockage if

- I use Valvoline racing oil 20/50 and a NAPA filter(I believe), in my 65BJ8 and get 60+ pressure when cold and after running and up to temp on the road, get just below 40PSI. I'm not worried about it

- That pressure sounds doable Doug. For the future, the Napa Gold 1516 filter is a Wix product if you care to change over later. I just purchased one for my adaptor unit and it fits and sizes up exactl

- To add some substance to the negative comments about Fram, I can attest to the following: 1) I've cut a few brands of filters open (car and light aircraft). The Fram PH3600 used thinner sheetmetal an

- I'd like to add my experience of the Fram (inferior) filter- I wondered why my oil pressure took so long to come up....changed to the Napa filter and had a much quicker response. Stephen, BJ8
