    This is the mounting bracket I fabricated for the engine oil bypass filter. The bracket mounts at four points - the two vertical straps mount to the HVAC ducting/cabin air filter housing studs, the strap going to the left mounts to a tab with a hole in it on the body located near the water valve...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    I've heard tell of it - it's interesting ...... I suspect that the reason the auto makers went away from it was probably due to wanting to be able to sell something which required much less maintenance - although it's really quick and easy. Of course, the other aspect of it is the public...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    Motor Guard Filter Element, Rear Backside of the label - notice the rating - down to 0.1 microns. The only real downside to using one of these setups on an internal combustion engine (particularly an EGR diesel) is you're gonna have to change the filter much more often that you would with a...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    Filter, Internal Below is what the insides look like, along with the standard filter element that Ralph recommends :D Some of the internals on a stock unit are plastic (polyproplene), because in an air filtration-only application they don't get all that hot internally - different story with...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    This is the modified Motor Guard M-30 Bypass Filter. Ralph (Wood) does a number of mods to them to make them suitable for use in lube systems as a bypass filter ...... one of the things he does is remove the epoxy paint that they come with from the factory (inside and out) - because the epoxy...

    When do you Sleep/

    Whenever I need to ..... before, during, or after ..... Last night I went to bed at around 18:00 or 19:00 after I dropped and grabbed some chow .... I slept straight-thru until 05:15 ..... Never. Only reason I'd ever be likely to spend the coin on a motel is if the truck was broke down...

    Israel attacks Gaza, 195 reported killed

    Pilgrim, I'm going to give you a detailed respond to your post above - but it's probably going to take awhile - because dealing with the actual truth of the matter doesn't lend itself to broad, generalized statements - it requires specificity - looking at all the facts in regards to the situation.
