    New Supertech St8 Oil Filter Cut Open Video

    Hi , Just cut open this filter, the filter element is not too bad, but the plastic inner, and paper end cap make it cheap construction. Plus I don't see a bypass system in this filter. If any one can explain that one to me, most have some sort of valve. I wouldn't use this filter

    Should I be worried that the leaf spring collapsed?

    After watching my own video I don't think I want to put this filter back on again ever.(The leaf spring was flat).What do you guy's think, could the filter been running in bypass mode, or is it okay. Scary thought.
