🔍 Key Concepts

• Full-flow lubrication system design and why oil must always reach the engine bearings • What a bypass valve responds to (pressure difference before and after the filter) • How a clogged or restricted passage affects oil pressure across a filter

💭 Think About

• In a full-flow system, oil must pass through the filter before going to the engine. Under what condition would the system need to ‘go around’ the filter to protect the engine? • Which of these choices would cause a higher-than-normal pressure BEFORE the filter and a lower pressure AFTER the filter? • Are there any options that would actually reduce the need for bypass (lower pressure drop across the filter) instead of increasing it?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which condition would increase pressure drop across the filter (inlet pressure up, outlet pressure down). • Eliminate any options that would mainly affect oil quality but not create a large, sudden restriction to flow. • Ask: which option would make it harder for oil to pass through the filter element, forcing the bypass valve to open to maintain flow?
