Good point...and well taken. And I totally agree with you, as that isn't a view I had thought about before...but it makes more sense than the idea of "flooding" and starvation from lack of sling... I know for fact the MTL doesn't whip into foam, because I have pulled the plug within a minute of...

I'm running a 1 micron hydraulic filter for fuel (Fleetguard HF6604, 1u @ 95%, 3u @ 98.6%, and 5u @ 99.5% and those are at 39.6GPM)...I change it once a year with almost 50k miles on it (and there is NO pressure drop in that length of time)...at say 18mpg, 50,000 miles / 18mpg is almost 2800...

On the 03, 04, and some 05s there are only two fittings...one on each tierod end (in the 4wds anyhow)... On the 05+, there is a "pocket" for lack of a better term for greasing the ball and socket of the cardan joint (not the ujoints), as well as the two on the tierod ends. There will be a...

I guess I never asked this before, but will TP eventually plug off or will it just stop filtering (and still flow oil)??? I have thought about running two in parallel, the TP would then be subjected to only those particles it really excels at capturing... There will most likely be another...

OK, I was told to overfill by a quart (or was it two?) on several occasions...I tried overfilling one time by a single quart (of just regular MTL) and had hotter than usual operating temps...draining the excess brought things back to "normal". I am still unsure whether the overfilling of an...

Hmm, now it's telling me I got to wait a day because the email I used doesn't match the one they have on file??? Considering I only have ONE email address... While they are waiting a day to figure it out, I can order Redline from Summit Racing today and have it here tomorrow. Simple as that...

There is no place during the entire checkout to add your customer number...it was tallying up the costs without reflecting my "discount". And I already registered, and again, no place for a customer number. If I knew I was going to be required to jump through hoops to use the "discount", I would...

I need to change the fluid out in my NV5600...so based on the UOA of Amsoil MTF, the collective "we" decided that mixing in a quart of MTG with the remainder MTF might be a good idea...well Amsoil's site doesn't allow me to input a "preferred customer number" and I don't have time to mess with...

I am considering one of those bypasses that use rolls of paper towels (for slightly longer change intervals)... It probably is a moot point in my case though...I don't need the bypass, but it's benefits are worth running one. In my case, there are a whole lot of CTDs with over a million miles...

I used a Stant replacement cap when I installed mine...they are solid and lack the internal ratcheting stuff... I can't speak for Arka, but I like the fact I can monitor the oil's return from the filter...a lot of guys don't like the extra "clutter" of hoses under hood though. steved

If they are indeed 2 micron @ 98%, they are as good as the Amsoil EaBPs when talking filtration. steved

That's what I'm saying...I'm not sure it is as good of a filter. The EaBPs do not keep the oil as VISIBLY clean as the BEs in my experience. Visibly cleaner oil means less soot (in the diesel world), less soot means the filter is performing better. And in my 2004.5 600CTD with the added third...

I would guess around a 1 quart/minute at hot idle. steved

There's no wix cross for it... steved

In what I have seen about AC Delco, they have the best diesel air filters when put head to head with others...I would assume all their air filters would be similar in quality. steved

I have the return heading into the oil filler cap, so it is very easy to see the retun and check it... I definately would check the flow...I doubt the volume of oil being pumped through your PSD is much different than what's going throught my CTD...my guess is your bypass isn't your issue...

As I said, I'm running nearly 25 feet of 1/4" hose and a 1/16" orifice that's pumping 1 quart/min at idle...what kind of flow rate are you seeing??? steved

I'm running a 1/16" orifice on my Cummins...your 7.3's oil pump should be very close to the CTD's in volume...you should be fine with 1/16"...just watch your oil pressure, I doubt it will change. For a car, I'd might be concerned, but for a light truck diesel, I wouldn't be concerned. steved

From someone who has used both filters...while the "numbers" appear better with the newer EaBP filters, the BE-series kept my oil visibly cleaner. I stated this on another board and got told that I must be wrong, until half a dozen others stated the same thing. The BE-90s my filterhead arrived...
