Thanks

Hey Mike, thanks! I plan on doing it at 7500... my one concern however is what you mentioned to me (in the PM IIRC).

one thing I noticed after taking it for a spin is the valve train noise is reduced. It is definately quieter.

 

I was wondering if would do half of what they say it will do for you so I being waiting a reading for updates

 

Well the only thing I can say at this time is that the oil still looks black coming out of the return line... I have about 1700 miles on it since the install and am not sure what to expect. this weekend I'll dump some into a container and have a look... I'll post what I find.

 

I don't know if you will see much of an improved look to your oil but it sure will keep a lot of the impurities out of the system from what I have read up on the use of these things. Now if I can just save up the $$ to put one on my engine [sm=sigh.gif]

 

I read that it will turn the oil back to a golden brown color once it's clean.... I should be home by thursday... I'll have a closer look then.

 

Do post to let us know as if it does then I will some how find the $$ to get one sooner.

 

OK, Will do...

 

EXCELLENT write up brotha !!! Hopefully it can be floated for all to see at the top. PLEASE keep us up to date !!

 

Great write up! Thinking of doing the same (just waiting for that colour update) only one concern though, tucking the bypass filter on the frame. I drive alot of dirt/gravel roads, very afraid of a rock taking it out!(when roads are wet I do get alot of mud up there under the cab and frame)I did see somewhere that a fellow made up a bracket and installed the filter on the "intake arc"? looked good except getting at fuel filter is gonna be a bigger chore.
