We had something similar with an manual transmission.

Working at an auto parts store, I heard that the bypass valve is for if the filter gets too clogged and blocks too much flow. In that case, unfiltered oil is better than no oil, so the valve will make the oil skip the filter element and go straight back into the engine.

Oil can flow up to 50 to 80 psi now you picture water hose shoots 65 PSI now picture of water hose at 80 psi that water would shoot 15-20 ft out of the hose. So yes oil is under high pressure and it is moving fast to get in the valleys and veins of the engines.

I did a dumb thing with my Tacoma when changing the oil and filter. I didn’t want to take the rock guard off the bottom of the truck and the filter is hidden under the alternator so t found a filter wrench that fit it and was trying to loosen it and I did get it loose but didn’t realize it and I said heck with it I’ll drive up on my ramps so I reached in and started the truck and turned around to get the ramps and then looked to see a sea of oil under my truck. I shut it off quick and checked the oil and there was a little over a quart left. No harm done but I found out just how much oil goes through the filter and let me tell you it’s all of it and fast. So it’s good to change them and make sure they are on correct.

A lot of oil filters can be had in a longer version. It would have to be matched up rather than part numbers. Oil filters for small block Chevys are easily had in long versions, if there is room to fit there is more filter area for same price. A long clear one would be easier to see. Great Video!

@@robertheinkel6225 It does though. Lawnmower engines are nowhere near as well built and well protected as car engines. The result is that oil gets much more contamination in it with a mower engine compared to a car engine. :) More contaminants, means a bigger filter is needed to last the duration of the oil change interval. A larger filter also increases overall engine oil capacity. A lawnmower usually uses a carb until you get into some realllllly expensive products. Carbs dilute the oil with unburned fuel that condenses and drips into the sump. Therefore, more oil volume minimizes the effect of gasoline dilution over the oil change interval. Usually you can't easily make a crankcase bigger arbitrarily, but you can remotely locate the oil filter mounting plate and upsize the filter very easily. :)

Bigger and especially longer oil filters tend to fill up later, at ten of thousand startups along the engine spanlife will make a margin in wearing.

Thanks 😁. Of all the oil filter evaluation videos you are the first one to point out which way the oil flow goes!

This was very interesting to see how the oil flows. Thanks for doing this!

Windshield sealant is an interesting choice. I’ve found that omitting the primer greatly reduces the adhesion of the sealant. Once cured, the sealant generally pulls off cleanly without it, especially with plastics. I’ve experienced that with helicopter windshields. It’s interesting how it differs from automotive applications on glass vs the plexiglass on the helicopter. There was also a noticeable difference with sealant procured locally compared with sealant we received from France. Technique is important also. If air bubbles are introduced into the sealant, it looses strength. A filter housing machined from a billet of plastic would probably last longer, but the forming machine is an interesting process. Great video 👍😎

Great video men! I always wondered how the oil looked when it moves through. Cheers!

This was great! You’ll have to try a transparent radiator or water pump next. Great video!

Well the transparent filter housing makes sense. Some cars have a housing and filament arrangement where the housing is just an injection moulded plastic piece, and I've seen clear housings used in water filtration systems in the past and thought "that's a great idea, as you can visually inspect the condition of the filter without removing it 1st" and in an automotive situation you would be able to immediately see the state of prime on the lubrication system, and how black the oil is

The bypass valve is their to let oil flow through if the filter element gets blocked. The bypass valve allows oil to flow through even if it is unfiltered as its a better choice than starving the engine of oil. Looking at the service manual for the car, it will tell you specs about the oil pump and how much oil it will pump at a given RPM.

This is entertaining. Love the transparent stuff!

What a lot of people don't realize is oil's lubrication is its secondary feature. Its primary one is to keep the moving parts of the engine cool. In other words, an engine can survive a lack of lubrication much longer than it can a lack of cooling of its internal parts which, when overheated, lockup and can break. You can actually replace engine oil with water and run the engine for an extended period of time so long as you keep adding water (as the heat tends to boil it off). Yes, the engine will suffer from accelerated wear so don't do this to an engine you care about, but it will run with water in place of oil. That is why so much oil is circulating so quickly through the engine. It must carry a lot of heat quickly back down into the oil pan where it can dissipate. Some engines even have oil coolers to aid in this.

That was a fascinating video. I always was curious about when on in oil filters.

This is nothing short of fantastic! I've wondered since I was a kid, what happens inside a filter!

It would be great if the oil filter manufacturers developed a translucent oil filter.

That was pretty awesome!! Stay safe fellas!

Put new filter on,new oil.the amount of old oil is alot.cheap new flush oil will get most of old oil out.

We all know some old oil remains from an oil change. I did a test on a 1992 pontiac bonneville. I drained oil in a pan for 10 minutes. I swapped a empty drain pan, let it sit all night I got over a half quart more the next day So now I always do oil changes on friday after work, and allow to drain all night and fill oil saturday my rule of thumb on oil changes is 30 seconds between drips from drain hole

NICE work. Bless you All!

I laughed when everyone scattered when he reached for the throttle 🤣

The bypass valve in the filter is not to prevent rupturing (that is the task of the pressure relief in the oil pump assembly), but to allow at least some lubrication when the filter gets clogged. Of course, it means the oil won't get filtered anymore, but that still means less damage than no lubrication at all.

That’s freaking awesome 👍👍

This makes me want to change the oil filter again, thanks

this is the channel i look forward to having a see through block or head

Appreciate you homie

You guys are smart!

You should try clamps, or zip-ties to hold the transparent housing to the base of the filter. It seemed they were able to withstand the pressure, but the windshield glue alone sheared. I think the extra pressure from a clamp would help the glue.

This is amazing!!! "Take my money!"

I think you're right. those filters must have been made, after lunch on a Friday. 😅 same goes here in the States. great video's.

Thanks, that was great

Nakachanyje Kaliosa yt channel was once making micro switch on oil filter connected to oil bypass valve. Bypass valve remains open even on fresh oil as long as oil is thick and cold and it closes , sending oil through filtration cartridge once engine is near to operating temperature. It takes longer with the distance and with dirt in oil filter to the point where oil engine flows all the time through open bypass without filtering if you have very dirty oil and filter without changing it for long time/long distance. Great and interesting content as usual. Great job guys. Thank you

better than any FRAM filter
