My engine came with a bypass filter, V555M, so I use it. Do I believe in it, maybe, since I don;t put the hours on the engine to make good use of the bypass and change the oil yearly regardless of hours.
I also do the oil tests yearly and they keep coming back good.
Lou,
Caterpillar operates their SOS oil test labs and they have them all across the country. Local Cat dealer should be able to help you.
My Cummins dealer sells the Cat SOS kits.
Just tell them you want it for your marine engine as they sell other sample kits for other types of machinery which are much more expensive and won't add anything of real value.
