Thanks Andrew,

Hadn't thought of that. Now I need to find out what I've done= .

I have the standard base mounted on a 3/4" thick adapter plate with the base rotated 180 deg, so top of filter pointed down rather than up.

So I think I have all the oil flowing through the filter :(

Recommendation for a bigger filter that will fit the base?

Finn.

Some users do modify their system to filter all the pump output, but this requires a much bigger filter and is kind of overkill.

probably 10-20 hours before that.

Picked up a K&N SO1008 oil filter at Walmart. Looks so tiny.

How come the Renesis can get away with such a tiny filter?

Anyone know the filter number for a filter with same base but longer?
