I've searched and found a few recent posts about what I'm observing.
I've recently installed a bypass oil filter.
When I start now, the gauge won't show pressure until about 4 seconds of running, less if I give it a shot of throttle.
Before the filter install, I observed a pressure reading right away.
I'm sure it's pretty safe to say that the bypass filter lets some oil back into the pan after I shut it off. Once it builds pressure, it runs just as it did before the filter was installed.
Is this acceptable, or should I have pressure from the get go, even with the bypass filter?
