I decided to go forward and install a bypass filter on my 2004 Honda CR-V.
I have the bypass installed, but not using the filter media yet for engine break-in reasons.
Anyways, I am planning on doing a UOA at 5k miles. Then without draining the oil, add the bypass media and send in another UOA at 6k to see if the bypass alters the results.
What do you guys think? Has this been done already? In theory, bypass filters shouldn't "filter" out the insolubles.
