| By-Pass Oil Filters & Mounting Kits Product
Information
Engine wear is caused by dirt particles larger than 5 microns.
The AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filter removes particles as small as 1/10
of a micron, virtually eliminating engine wear. AMSOIL By-Pass
Oil Filters filter all the oil in a six-quart system in about
five minutes at an average engine speed equivalent to 45 mph. |

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filter provides the best
possible filtration protection against wear, oil degradation, rust
and corrosion. Working in conjunction with the engine’s full-flow oil filter, the
AMSOIL By-Pass Filter operates by filtering oil on a "partial-flow" basis.
It draws approximately ten percent of the oil at any one time and
traps the extremely small, wear-causing contaminants and water
that full-flow filters can’t remove. The AMSOIL By-Pass Filter
typically filters all the oil in the system several times an hour,
so the engine continuously receives analytically clean oil. |

Reduces Wear
Approximately 60 percent of all engine wear is caused by dirt particles in
the 5 to 20 micron range. These particles can get inside the precision clearances
between engine components and cause severe damage. While full-flow oil filters
generally stop contaminants no smaller than 25 to 40 microns, the AMSOIL
By-Pass Filter effectively stops particles smaller than one micron in size,
substantially reducing engine wear.
Prevents Oil Degradation, Rust and Corrosion
Water enters motor oil as a combustion by-product or as a condensate. Water
contamination of the motor oil can cause extreme engine damage. Water causes
metal surface rust and corrosion, which increases friction and wear and deteriorates
the close-fitting tolerances between engine components. In addition, water
reacts with other oil contaminants to form corrosive acids, which also damage
metal components. The AMSOIL By-Pass Filter removes water, reducing the risk
of oil degradation, engine rust and corrosion.
Extends Oil Drain Intervals
Because the AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filter removes water and particles smaller than
one micron, it significantly increases the time oil can safely be left in
the engine. In fact , engines using AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oil and an AMSOIL
By-Pass Oil Filter routinely show much lower rates of engine wear - even
when the oil is used for significantly longer drain intervals - than engines
using conventional products and conventional oil drain intervals. That saves
motorists time and money and helps protect the environment by creating substantially
less used oil.
Dual Remote Filter System
The AMSOIL Dual Remote Oil Filtration System converts an engine’s full-flow
oil filter system into a full-flow/by-pass oil filtration system by attaching
an AMSOIL Full-Flow Oil Filter and AMSOIL Spin-On By-Pass Oil Filter onto a
remote mount. The Dual Remote System provides superior filtration efficiency,
increased oil capacity and improved oil filtration accessibility.

"When we took this Chevrolet 396 engine apart
(using AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40, Reusable Air Filter and By-Pass Oil
Filter), it was in the best condition of any engine I have ever seen.
It looked like it had about 80,000 miles on it instead of over 535,000.
The bearings were not even worn to the brass and the rings were not
worn out. It was clean inside, no sludge or carbon at all."
