Subject: Oil bypass filter system in 92 3.9L Dak. IP: Logged
Message: I put an Amsoil BMK-11 engine oil bypass filtration system with a BE-110 bypass filter in my Dak a few days ago after seeing one in action on another vehicle. My buddy has been running one on his 7.3L diesel F-350 with 120k miles on it and his oil was shockingly clean when we changed it a weeks ago. He does not use Amsoil in his truck. He uses Shell Rotella dinosaur juice. I just got back from a thunder-run from Indianapolis to San Antonio and back in my 92 3.9L Dak and My oil is still unusually clean after that. I tried this as an experiment but I am happy with the results. This is more than I expected. There are other brands available besides Amsoil that probably work just as well. Not many people run these or even know about them. They are used primarily on Military vehicles and OTR big-rigs. I just thought it's something others might want to look into as a performance mod. If you are looking for something to supplement the stock filtration system and add longevity to your engine, this may be the way to go.

shkhzrd, Thanks for the comments.
Amsoil By-Pass Filtration Kits (for those interested)
By-Pass Oil Filters
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.
By-Pass Filtration 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.
