An AMSOIL Bypass System introduces a secondary bypass filter that is used in conjunction with the vehicle’s current full-flow filter to better protect your engine. AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filters can efficiently remove particles down to 2 microns in size. To learn more about bypass systems click here.
Installing a bypass system has many benefits. It can help remove small contaminants from your oil, extending engine life. To learn more about bypass filtration and its benefits click here.
Yes, an AMSOIL Bypass System can be used in nearly any application, from passenger vehicles to heavy-duty systems. If you do not see your specific application, choose a Universal Single-Remote or Universal Dual-Remote System, along with the appropriate adapter(s) for your application. If there are not adapters available for your application, you can still install a system by using different parts available from AMSOIL. Contact AMSOIL Technical Services (715-399-TECH or [email protected]) for more information.
Yes, an AMSOIL Bypass System can be used in nearly any application, from passenger vehicles to heavy-duty systems. While bypass filtration is beneficial in all applications, it has the most benefit in diesel applications due to the high soot content.
An AMSOIL Bypass System could be used in a racing application, but due to the extreme conditions presented in racing vehicles, AMSOIL cannot warranty a system used for this purpose.
There are a number of locations where an AMSOIL Bypass System could be mounted. When looking for a location to mount your system, keep the following in mind:
EABP120 | EABP110 | EABP100 | EABP90 | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Size & Additional Capacity | 6" - 1 Quart | 7.5" - 1.5 Quarts | 10.5" - 2 Quarts | 12.1" - 4 Quarts |
When determining which filter to purchase, choose the largest size that will fit in your application.
Note the EaBP120 only fits the FMK30
Acceptable | Good | Preferred | Acceptable | Good | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Angle | 180°-160° | 160°-130° | 130°-50° | 50°-20° | 20°-0° |
(Recommendations are the same right to left and front to back) Mounting angle above horizontal is not recommended.

If you do not know which AMSOIL Ea Oil Filter you are using, or if you are not currently using an AMSOIL Ea Oil Filter, consult the AMSOIL product guide to see all AMSOIL products available for your vehicle. You will find the filter that fits your application and then you can use the above chart to find your adapter.
All AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filters are 98.7 percent efficient at 2 microns.
Physically
Filter | Height | Diameter |
---|---|---|
EaBP90 | 5.78 | 4.25 |
EaBP100 | 7.25 | 4.25 |
EaBP110 | 10.35 | 4.25 |
EaBP120 | 12.1 | 5.35 |
The amount of hose provided in the system is generally more than enough for both a feed and return line for most applications. Wherever you decide to mount your Bypass Filter System, try to mount it as close to the engine as possible.
A properly installed AMSOIL Bypass System will not void your vehicle’s warranty. According to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, to affect vehicle warranty an aftermarket part must be directly responsible for the failure.
AMSOIL Ea Bypass Filters are designed to remove fine particles; they are not meant to extend oil change intervals beyond original recommendations. However, when fine particles are filtered out of the motor oil, it may be possible to attain longer drain intervals. This should be determined by used oil analysis. In addition, the use of an AMSOIL Bypass System may allow for the use of larger oil filters, which can increase filtering capacity.
If your diesel engine is equipped with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), the soot in your exhaust is reintroduced into the engine’s intake and soot particles are constantly being put back into your combustion chamber and making their way into your oil. The average full-flow oil filter can efficiently remove wear particles 20 microns in size and larger, and while an AMSOIL Bypass Filter can efficiently remove particles down to 2 microns, it cannot capture all the soot particles smaller than 2 microns. These small soot particles have a coloring effect that can turn your oil dark. The good news is AMSOIL synthetic diesel oils have high dispersant additives that effectively keep these small soot contaminants in suspension, preventing them from agglomerating and forming larger, wear-causing contaminants.
