If they are so great as many of you people say they are....why doesnt Cummins ( and others) include them as an extra costs option for their engines???? Think of the selling feature when you can advertise no filters or oil changes for 100,000 miles. Add up the cost of oil and filters and thats a big savings. So why not then??
The 2001 Peterbilt I purchased, it was an add on option. The bypass filter system is a Spinner II Filter.
I added a petcock for taking an oil sample.
Why doesn't everyone get it? I would guess, up front cost. Most companys trade in trucks after a few years.
I had one truck. I wanted to take care of the engine. I was in charge of the maintenance.
