HI
I have been trying to find the source of the poor idle when on oil and on the advice from members of this forum I changed the filter.
I cut it open (sharp edges on the can) and found the filter paper to be a little brown stained .
The oil seemed to flow fine from the fliter when I removed it so I think it was not too blocked. The car runs great on anything above idle and has the normal power.
I will not get a chance today to take the car for a run but will report back after my work run tomorrow.
The photo might show the more knowledgeable if the filter is to blame.
I have the oil in filtered to 10 microns, then a 440l upflow system and when needed it's put through a 5 micron inside a 1 micron sock filter (cold). I think it has to be clean after all that. But I do fine some very fine "silt" still in the bottom of my filtered oil when letf to stand?
Any thoughts?
Rob
