    Re: Oil filter TOO small

    Here's a question for ya guys....by adding a PF-52 oil filter, will that add more oil to my system? & if so, does that help cool my engine a bit? Lastly, will doing so cause any codes to pop up? (i.e. change in oil pressure?) ok, ok, i know that was more than one question, but am a lil confused & it's late...lol...any help would be appreciated!

      you will have to put a bit more oil in the system, yes.

      no, oil isnt made to cool the engine down, your coolant is.

      your oil pressure will not change.

        Addition of an Engine oil cooler is one of the best ways to augment the cooling system.
