You just don't know it was because of the filter because it may take a year or so before failure. So if I get this right, increasing the back pressure near the oil filter will send more oil to the nozzles. But anything over 15 PSI will bleed off inside. So a fitting with a restriction just after the filter should boost oil delivery to the nozzles as long as I don't go to crazy, maybe shoot for 7 to 8 psi in a warm engine. I'm probably not going to do this, just a thought. Mine runs Great and has 3 or 4 psi so I guess I'll just live with a gauge that hardly moves. Thanks for your help and taking the time to explain all of this!! Steve</p></blockquote><p></p>
