I am running a bypass filter on my 95 PSD. This summer before I do my 3K TP filter change, I am going to take a sample of the oil and do a UOA and a particle count. We had an excellent test done by EkPolk with a particle count. I want to see if the bypass is reducing the particles under 25 micron by a substantial amount. This is a picture of a used TP filter showing the top where the debris is collected. Notice, contrary to some sales pitches by a MFG. of another brand that uses cotton wound filters, the lack of channeling as they claim.
