Hi, fellow rotary enthusiasts....I am getting ready
to run the oil supply
line to my Ross PSRU. I am contemplating tapping
into the 90 degree oil
filter adapter which we made. Upon looking at
several schematics showing
oil flow and direction in a 13b, I concluded that
the oil first enters the
oil filter from the port furthest from the engine,
then after flowing
through the filter, returns into the port closest to
the engine. Because of
the design of my 90 degree filter adapter, it would
be easier and more
practical to tap into the system where the oil is
returning from the filter
back into the engine. My thinking is that since the
oil filter is a
"closed" system, that there should be the same, or
adequate oil pressure
just as the oil is exiting the filter as it would
just before entering the
filter? If this is true, I can tap into that
portion of the loop, and have
a simple, short hose going straight to the top of
the PSRU. Did I mention
that I like things simple? Thanks in advance for
any and all replies and/or
suggestions. Looks like this thing will be making
noise very soon. Paul
