I thought it was a bypass oil system because it bypassed some of the oil into the filer instead of pre filtering it all befor it goes thru the bearing like on newer cars. Newer filters have a bypass valve built into the filter to bypass the filter when it gets to dirty to flow oil so the bearings won't burn out if you forget to change it out. Mark H.
