Need some input from the engine gurus. 9 months ago we spun the main in our original motor. Had it replaced with an S&J engine in Utah. The shop that installed the new motor put a remote inline oil filter on the new motor. He was being cautious and didn't want to worry about any let over metal particulates. Much to our fortune less the 1000 miles later the new rebuilt motor from S&J spun the main. They replaced that motor free of charge. They said they found metal in the motor but couldn't determine if it was old or again we were just very unlucky. My question is. Should I leave the remote inline oil filter on the new motor or return the system back to OEM. I'm about to change the break in oil from the newest rebuild and could do it will I'm under there.
Thank Jim
