11-29. FULL-FLOW OIL FILTER. An ex-
ternal oil filter may be installed on the engine. The
filter and filter adapter replaces the internal oil
pressure screen. Provisions are provided in the
oil filter adapter cover for the oil temperature bulb.
The filter adapter incorporates a bypass valve.
If
the filter element should become clogged, the bypass
valve will open, allowing pressure oil to flow to the
engine oil passages.

filter element and can. Discard metal gasket.
d. Lift lid from can, and discard lower gasket.
e. Pull filter element from can.
NOTE
Before discarding removed filter element,
remove the outer perforated paper cover;
using a sharp knife, cut through the folds
of the filter element at both ends, close to
the metal caps. Then carefully unfold the
pleated element and examine the material
trapped in the filter element for evidence
of internal engine damage such as chips or
particles from bearings. In new or newly
overhauled engines, some small particles
or metallic shavings might be found, these
are generally of no consequence and should
not be confused with particles produced by
impacting, abraSion, or pressure. Evidence
of internal engine damage found in the oil
filter element justifies further examination
to determine the cause,
f. Wash lid, hollow stud and can in cleaning sol-
vent and dry with compressed air.
