40 years ago, Frantz oil filter distributors used an identical demonstration.

I have an FS2500 on my diesel pickup. I take oil feed with a T fitting from the port containing my oil pressure gauge and I return the oil through the oil pan's drain sump opening. My oil stays cleaner and runs cooler due to the metal casing of the bypass filter radiating excess heat. I have read that engine oil provides up to 40% of the engine cooling effect. I've debated plumbing a heat diffuser or two into the system as well. Coupling this filter with 100% synthetic engine oil allows me to replace both this and my standard engine oil filter yearly. I add a quart or so of engine oil every filter change and every other filter change I plan to send in for an oil analysis.

This is great information on the bypass. I was looking at the Amsoil bypass one for my GM gas engine. I have been using magnets on the oil filter and oil drain plug and noticed a lot of ferrous metals being picked by the magnets. I know best filters are about 20 microns at 99% efficiency so wanted a better option. Thanks for all the info

I run a Frantz Bypass oil filter on my R31 Skyline, have had it on there for about a year now, only changed the filter element ("Toilet roll") today, oil was still gold and still smooth. Only reason i changed the oil was i went to a thicker oil as we are coming into summer here. They are the best filtration you can get. All the people who doubt these have obviously never used one so they have no idea. There is also no loss in oil pressure.

What's the point of using thicker oil in the summer? Why not just use a multi-weight oil?

I have read many peoples complaints about bypass filters and i don't think any of you get it. The bypass filter is a secondary system and takes out the smallest particles. Because of that you only flow a small amount of oil through the filter and you run all of the oil through approx 5 times a hour. Thats how they work. So there is no need to tell people they don't know what they are doing just because they want to improve on the oil in the system. These are and have been on truck tractor diesels for at least the 75 yrs. yes your oil will still turn black because of the dye discolours the oil but it does remove the damaging particles. That is how you get a million miles from a diesel engine. But if you think delete is the only answer well it isn't. I don't think they have gone about these systems properly to reduce pollution but delete is not the answer.

I put one of these on my 2005 GMC 2500HD in 2008 and recently had to replace a valve cover gasket that was leaking. Everything under the valve cover looked brand new. No sludge or even dirty oil at all. I change my oil and filters at 6k miles using 5w40 delo 400 and 2qt of Lucas since I got the truck back in 2006

They had luberfiner filters out many years ago that did the same thing . Even thinking back we had a luberfiner on our 1935 TD 35 international crawler tractor that had a rag type media that was just shredded rags that you put in loose and packed it then screwed the top on .

check out the HUBB filter. It whips them both and is washable. It does cost but has a 100k mile warranty

Bypass filters like this have been around for many, many years. They do work and there are thousands of positive, admittedly anecdotal results. However, don't think that this filter will result in new looking oil. It won't make your oil look amber. It will, however improve it's appearance somewhat.

It is a great filter demonstration. But Amsoil has had a system like this from the late 1970's and they sell the lubricants to go with it. They are only By-Pass filters, not full flow filters, but they can significantly extend the life of the oil and the engine. I have used them but now there is no room in my engine bay to install one.

***** And some didn't even have filters, like the original VW beetle, and my first vehicle, a 1929 Model A Ford, which had none from memory. Filtration over the years has improved, unless of course you use cheap filters. But many after market filters filter better than the originals. I did once have a toilet roll filter.

I've used Baldwin filters for a while after doing a research found that fleetguard was Cummins Filtration bought a Lube kit for the fuel and the engine along with the bypass filter. Upon priming my new fleetguard Lube filter I saw something shiny fall down into the oil I took a magnet and retrieved it pulled out a half moon coarse hair sized sliver of metal that was left behind from the thread Machining process. That piece of metal would have went right through the bearing journals people beware the quality control from fleetguard filters is not good I have never seen this on another filter. I'm glad I was paying attention and saw it

WOW this really works in the video.

These are great for stopping engine wear I use something similar on my car, while a full flow oil filter filters down to at best 20 microns. These can filter down to 2 microns by attaching to the pressure port and only filtering a bit at a time. The bull s**** part is yes the oil will still go black. there is soot smaller them 2 micron but it can't cause any wear and the filter is good for 60000 clicks or so

news flash,,"most" engine wear occurs at start-up,when there is no oil on the bearings

Quite interesting using a fs2500 which is a fuel filter.. and you testing it with hydraulic oil

I hope they make a tiny version for my 1 liter motorcycle

I highly recommend filtration on fuel, engine oil, and hydraulic systems as well. Keep in mind big pieces cause the failures...but it's the tiny pieces that make the small pieces, that make the slightly bigger pieces, that create the big pieces that cause failure. Take out the tiny stuff and the rest of them are never created.

Amazing. Do they make one for automotive applications.

good stuff, thats what im going to do next, send it to the lab, see if theres any copper or anything in the oil from bearings

Look at the discharge line going back into the reservoir, compare the both from filter to filter. Look how much stronger the flow is on the 2nd filter. This means a serious increase in pressure.

not true at what efficiency? most filters are 20 microns @ 50% efficiency and are full flow which have a unloader that allows contaminants through especially when you first startup or don't change the filter. In fact Cummins requires bypass filtration now. That is why you see combo or dual flow filters part of the oil goes through a different media in the filter this is not available on most cars since you need a large filter to fit the bypass filter inside www.cumminsfiltration.com/south-pacific/venturi-combo-lube-filters. Micron rating is the size of particles which are filtered out by filters at a certain efficiency. When this efficiency is at least 98.6%, we speak about absolute micron rating/filtration. "Nominal micron rating is just a commercial trick for all efficiencies lower than 98.6%, meaning that for the same micron rating (for example 10 µ) in the case of nominal rating, not all particles will be captured in the filter as in the case of absolute micron rating." (from Cummins)

The term slows the flow of oil is misleading. These take a small amount of oil from the flow and clean it, then return it to the oil pan. As for clogging, you change these filters around 25,000 miles. Just change your regular filters at the proper interval.

BINGO. Small particles cause the most wear *in a normal engine* , because small particles are all that's left in the oil after it passes through the oil filter. If the larger particles were still in the oil (like if the oil filter's internal pressure-relief valve gets stuck open), I guarantee you they'll cause more wear than the smaller particles do.

Notice the change in flow rate when the "2500" is switched in-line. Am I wrong?

this would be perfect atv/dirtbike racing

Did you refill fluid with same amount of soot from the start. Maybe first filter goes into bypass from overload. So possible second filter might bypass too. Definitely second filter will get the smaller particles. Nice. Need one for my car.

I am shure wix and other accept fram are still good too the fs brand fleetservace or filter tech brand may not make car filters for us to use

Bypass filtration is a proven science. The FS-2500 units are some of the best on the market. I've run these units on my equipment for 20 years with excellent results. This demonstration shows how the filters remove suspended solids not dissolved solids. It is not going to make your diesel oil look like it is fresh out of the bottle due to dissolved solids in the oil. However, a laboratory oil analysis will show you that the FS-2500 does exactly what it says it does.

my volvo 770 2003 with a ved 12 engine i only used fleetguard filters at the petro lube,i got 1,250,000 miles on it when i sold it and the only major problem was inj #5 went out mpg were 6.7 . it was equipped with 3 oil filters but only used fleetguard never donaldsons or red filters.

In industry we have oil filter setup's that starts at a 20 and end at a 3 or 5 micron. We set these up on new drums of oil and filter NEW DRUMS OF BULK OIL! Yes if your worried about the oil look at the bottom of your jug of oil and you will see fines in a new bottle of oil.

Deceptive I put one of these systems on a V8 and after 2k miles the oil didn't appear any cleaner/clearer then i used a clear plastic bottle and ran the motor to see whats coming out of the bypass filer line....dark oil it may filter to smaller particulates but it defiantly does not "clean/Clear up" oil

But how much does it cost compared to other filters and how much it last ?

is this in addition to or instead of the original oil filter? only for diesel or will this work on gas engines too?

Amazing

it means from time to time, you need to acknowledge the low oil pressure alarm and clean your filter.

Could you tell me, at what temperature this oil on the video, that type of pump used ,and pressure operation?

What about things that can dissolve in oil?

if it slows flow, why is it blasting away when switching filters?

I guarantee when you do you will regret posting these ignorant statements. Sure sign of "wet behind the ears" behavior. And to Azourecosee, Diesel engines get dirty a hell of a lot faster than internal combustion engines, and use diesel oil which has much higher TBN specification which means several times the detergent as non diesel oil. Dirty oil in any vehical means that the oil is doing its job. If oil is staying clean in your motor chances are the oil isn't cleaning it properly. That is what one of oils most important duty is to clean the engine by suspending the soot in your engine rather than allowing to collect around in places like bearings and races, or just falling to the bottom of the pan. Then upon change intervals you get rid of it. The idea of a bypass filter gets better the dirtier your oil will get, and that is why installing it on your over the road tractor is a must to make money by keeping your truck out of the shop over the life of it. I guarantee using one will save you several 10s of thousands of dollars. All of the owner operators use em.

I have ran my frantz filtered oil for 44000 miles ..ha it tested and the lab said I could just keep going with it if I ha wanted to

Is there something like this, but for gasoline cars? Like sedans, coupes, etc.

It doesn't affect oil pressure. The system is such that they are plumbed in parallel and the bypass filter inlet is restricted to only take a small volume of oil, but its enough to eventually clean out even old dirty oil, new oil wont even get a chance to get any soot in it with these filter inline. Most people that run these end up extending drain intervals and getting their oil tested however. If you're just doing regular drain intervals the gains may be debatable.

Would this even be worth it for a diesel engine? They dirty up real fast and still go millions of miles, I think the key is fuel lubrication

There's no reduction in oil flow if you use an oil filter adapter. The adapter lets the main filter and the bypass filter to be parallel to each other. Put another way, imagine going down a road that eventually splits off into two directions. One road is called "main filter" and the other is called "bypass". Most cars take the main filter road and a few take the bypass road. However, both roads rejoin a little further down the way and ALL the cars go into the "engine mountain tunnel" together.

Yes actually it is a 2.78 micron absolute (lab tested) element. And the reason it needs to be changed is because it HAS been tested to see how long it can go before it clogs. Take a look at the Southwest Institute Research tests on their website!

How does it compete against Amsoil 2micron bypass filter?

Cummins owns Fleetguard so it is obvious why they would recommend Fleetguard filters. Cummins, like all engine companies make an enormous amount of money on parts. It is not in their best interest to offer filters that stop wear (If I made billions of dollars per year on parts wearing out I wouldn't either).The FS-2500 will dramatically extend your oil drain intervals AND completely stop the wear in your engine.This is a win for you and a win for us not so much for the engine & oil companies.

you float the bearings at 30psi

why is the pressure different in the 2 filters? should make the oil filter see thru so we make sure its a new filter and not some used old dirty clogged up filter that's why the pressure is so low on that filter.

Must be spec to car system, car system must be able to have same flow or better or you will starve system too. Need back pressure flow chart. And same specs for car or truck you want to use with

if the information in this video is true then why do cummins recommend fleetguard filters (which is the white filter in the video) for there engines and fit them as standard to new and rebuilt engines?

Big question for these filters. How much does the pressure drop across the filter increase by as it gets filled with particles and how much is the flow rate reduced. They never show pressure gauges or flow rates on these tests. To much of a pressure loss and reduced flow rate can be worse than only filtering out larger particles.

The average flow rate throughout the life of the element (10,000 miles for Class 8 trucks) is 1.5 gallons per minute. This is very slow relative to what your oil pump is displacing, but fast enough to keep up with contaminant creation/ingestion." Now, they even say that the rate is slower than your pump works...so why is this not a red flag to them?

I could recreate this test using a clogged canister filter and a brand new paper element filter.

No, you can't use it to recycle your used oil, because your used oil is chemically degraded, not just dirty. Even if you thoroughly filtered the oil it would never lubricate properly again.

if it slows the flow of oil... can that really be a good thing? Moroso says... "After many years of designing and testing racing oil systems and related components, we’ve determined what’s most important to oil filtration. Many filter manufacturers stress the importance of filtering the smallest particles out of your engine’s oil, with references to "micron ratings" of 10 or less for a filter’s efficiency. With the help of research performed by filtration technology experts, Moroso engineers have determined that particles smaller than 20 microns in diameter are not large enough to produce engine wear. Furthermore, we’ve found that filters with extremely low micron ratings create an excessive pressure drop across the filter. They can be so restrictive that the filter by-pass valve can open. With the by-pass valve open, unknown to you-NO FILTRATION will occur! To maximize filter performance, Moroso Racing Oil Filters have a rating of 27 microns, which produces a maximum initial restriction of only 2.5 psi when tested to SAE j806! The result is less pressure drop, more flow, less oil by-pass and maximum filtration performance important in severe racing conditions." I'm gonna go, with Mor-O-So!

The type of filter shown is a by-pass filter, not a primary filter. While the primary filter takes care of oil feeding directly into the engine, the by-pass filter connects to a port on the oil gallery with a small restricted line and takes a small part of the oil to the by-pass filter to remove very small particles and stuff that can cause the oil to break down prematurely and then return it to the oil pan. A by-pass filter's sole purpose is to extend the life of the oil and primary filter, not to be a primary filter.

I you notice a performance effect of an oil change at all then there are issues. What bikes is this on? Use the reccomended oil in the correct weight.

getahanddown Motorcycles are different. Oil will make the transmission feel different. Shifting will be affected.

My question is: how can the oil flow be the same with such a high efficiency filter, and won't it raise the oil pressure by restricting oil flow ? Surely less oil molecules can pass thru in the same amount of time in a filter with "smaller holes" ?

Probably it is ment to be a bypass style filter.

The filter media is probably synthetic which filters better because it's deeper and thicker while still allowing adequate flow. Most oil filters, however, are cellulose-based and are more restricting.

The pressure of your bypass is set at a certain poundage, allowing oil to continue flowing, even if the filter is totally clogged. You CAN'T lose oil pressure with a bypass filter unless your circulatory system has a problem, like a bad pump.

+Gary Chandler Oh, and you are correct in the thought of lesser filtration, but the point is moot since better filtration is still better than low filtration. What would you prefer, say oil that passes thru a loose filter every 3000 revs, or oil that has gone thru a tight filter every 6000 revs?

Nick Armock It's not a hard and fast rule but generally, synthetic media allows greater flow than cellulose media. If you compare the two under a microscope, you will notice that synthetic media fibers are not as closely "knit" as cellulose fibers. That being said, the synthetic media is usually made thicker in order to compensate for the more spaces between the fibers. This will impede oil flow a little bit but will still flow better than most (but not all) cellulose media while still providing adequate filtration. Also, because it is thicker, it will last considerably longer than standard, run-of-the-mill cellulose oil filters as it holds more crud. For example, I use the Fram Ultra on my car which uses 100% synthetic media. It filters down to 20 microns at over 99%, flows at *least* 10 GPM and can be run for 15,000 miles. All this info was provided to me by a guy who works for Fram. It's their best filter...by far. They are amazing and are beautifully constructed both inside and out. They are nothing like the cheaper Fram filters. Well, off to bed. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

This is a bypass filter man. You will still have the regular oil filted on your engine filtering the oil. This one will filter oil as well, just in smaller amount. It will hardly effect psi.

Over a million miles? That'd be crazy and awesome if it does happen! What kind of oil do you use, synthetic? What brand, if so? What kind of "by pass oil system are we talking about here?"

You probably have to change this thing every time you drive to the corner store and back.

what about HEAT

Am i the only one wondering why the Pump is sucking fresh oil and giving out black oil in the video?

you saw it wrong, look again and again.

but the regular filter already filtered out '98%' of the contaminants. regardless, if it works on regular cars i'd buy it
