Hey guys..
Just finished up my first bypass system using an LF777 filter/head. On the outlet side of the filter, I added an .035 orifice as the built-in .100 was too big.
Testing flow... oil wasn't quite at full temp, I was getting 1/2qt in 3 minutes. Just a slow constant trickle out of the return hose.
I know that slow is good... but when is it TOO slow? This is now a 14qt system meaning at that rate, it would take over an hour to flow the entire sump through the filter.
I'm thinking this is too slow to be effective.
Thoughts?
