Alright, ok , let's say this filter media is better.
And let's say, that some Vanagonite, with, let's say, 150,000 miles on
their engine, install's one of these miracle filters.
I would venture to say that because of the high miles on the engine, the
oil pressure is not going to be up to factory spec's, and by trying to
push the oil through this TP filter, the oil pump is going to have one
hell of a time circulating oil, not only through the engine, but through
this do-dad too. Just think of how thick a roll of toilet paper is!
And now you want to push oil through it?
Now we go to oil samples.
I would like to see the results of a oil analysis, where you never have
changed your oil.
There would have to be so much acid's and sulfur's in the oil, it would
make you gag.
No filter, removes these!
And then, I would like to see the inside of the engine, after let's say,
50 or 60, thousand miles.
Yuck!
I can see the sludge now!
Years ago I knew a guy who believed in never changing his oil in his
Caddy, and he traded them off every 4 years.
Well, the valve cover's were leaking, and he asked me to change the
gasket's
There was so much sludge inside those cover's, I had to shovel them out,
with a back-hoe!
I have changed valve cover gasket's on engines I've owned, and because
of frequent oil & filter changes, the inside looks as good as new.
Why do the guys that race cars,boats, airplanes, whatever, change their
oil every race?
Because,oil breaks down, under load!
I know this is extreme, but under excessive heat , and fuel wash,
situations, oil fails, even the most expensive synthetic's!
And no "Miracle filter" is going to alter this fact of life.
