on the oil filter stand there is a pressure releif passage (spring loaded ball). i have to think this is a bypass for if the oil filter plugs. can the oil bypass ever weaken some over the years and should this bring concern? i have 2 and they seem to take lightly different pressure to push in. anyone ever mess w/ it? makes me wonder if running a good filter may just cause oil to bypass it.
