Gary,
Been away a while.
Was wanting to adapt my remote to run the FL820S for full flow.
Instead, I removed it per Terry Dyson's recommendations. Bad analysis for wear metals ....poor filtration.
I am now running the Amsoil EAO11
I have installed a bypass filtration system on my 05 F150.
I've been told I don't need AutoRx with this.
Do you recommend a maintenance dose? If so, how much? It now holds 8qts.
Thanks
Jason
Is the Particle Count a standard with UOA, or do I have to request it?
Second, who do you use for your analyses?

Please keep this in mind when advising me.
That's why I'm trying this bypass. I want my 2005 F150 to last me through many 100s of...
I switched and put the bypass filter first then the full flow, then back to the engine.
Is that best?
I'm running Amsoil, so I'm really thinking of simply changing filters and replenishing without changing.
Should I still change every so often with this method of filtration and replenishment?
I...
Say, I think this thread has deviated a little bit from my original question :-)
Presently I have about 700 miles on this setup. Trying to see when I should change filters.
When should I do UOA?
Thanks
Jason
I guess this has been gone over, but my search didn't turn up anything...........perhaps because it's after midnight Central Time
Anyway, at what intervals should I change the full flow filter on my bypass unit?
What about the metered flow bypass?
Another thing, does the Amsoil filter have the...
