Hi ToledoFJ,

My post was in no way specific to any particular oil filter. I was just trying to explain how the bypass valve in most engine/oil filters work so that folks could try to understand it.

I think it's great your doing so much research on the Trufilter. Discussions such as this are healthy (as long as they stay civil). I myself have tried many different premium oil filters over the years, so my curiosity is somewhat similar to yours.

I think we need to have another one of those oil filter tests that was done back in the 90's with all the new filters out there. An updated version.

Perhaps someone has already done that at "Bobistheoilguy" forum.

Cheers.
