I understand why they put a bypass valve in oil filters...in case it gets p lugged up by the Consumer keeping it too long before changing. But, what ab out the Owner who is anal on oil changes and oil filter changes (ie : every 3,000 miles) way before the oil filter becomes plugged in the interest of having ALL the oil filtered ALL the time ? Further, the car is used in a tropical climate where it seldom gets below 40 f., 0w30 Mobil One is use d, and the car is allowed to warm up for a couple minutes before driving aw ay under gentle acceleration until fully warmed up .
Im considering using deluxe Racing Filters which have no bypass valve and c ost approx. $16-18 each. Id like maximum filtering for my engine .
Would appreciate your thoughts on this issue. Thanks.
