[QUOTE="jim.kukulski., post: 1491427, member: 15425"] More or less this is correct. I’ll add that oil film clearance between the bearing and the journal, or most any film, is between 1 and 6 um. So the full flow Filtration doesn’t really capture much of the particles that are responsible for long term bearing wear. I like to think about it this way, Full flow Filtration is like a boulder catcher. It grabs the larger stuff to keep catastrophic failures to a minimum. But, it’s not designed to really polish the oil at all. And, I’m high flow stated it may actually not filter the oil at all if it goes into bypass. A kidney loop/off line/ or bypass filtration is for polishing the oil down to clearance sized particles. It removes soot more effectively(as soot particles are generally sub micron, it catches them if the add pack in the oil assists) this can also assist in helping the add pack last longer, but that’s the case mostly with less expensive oils. As their packs trend downward quicker with more ingressed contamination. Higher quality oils packs deal with contamination much more effectively, so it’s quite nuanced to explain the details here, so I’ll avoid it for now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
