I certainly wouldn't decide to not work on an oil system again. I know how much difference it made in my situation. Just need to decide what's appropriate for your combination of parts and RPM range.

After blowing one up, I became a believer in the System 1. If there's an oil problem like that, it will show up in the oil filter before it becomes catastrophic. I about wore the threads out on that trash can checking the filter on motor #2. At least until I felt like I'd gotten a handle on it.


If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.
