Reply to "By-pass filters pros and cons"

Sort of a catch-22 though isn't it? I mean the cars that see low oil temps and low useage are the worst about actually see a cost per mile benifit from the filter.

There is an extermely gimmicky bypass filter on the market that contains an electric heating coil to boil out water...I've always thought that people would do better to just get their oil temps up once in a while! (That particular product has a number of other problems as well) As a side note, since I seem to rip on Amsoil a lot here, their Marine 15W40 would be an excellent choice in a car that sees low miles per year: very stout at preventing corriosion.
