I have thought about adding same type of filter used for hydraulic pump systems as oilpickupfilter.
It should be able to keep the pump and engine free from any metal or other instant disaster stuff while the bypass filter takes care of the finer filtration.
Any thought on that aproach.
With modern oil and frequent changes the fine mesh of the pickup shouldnt clog up...or have i missed something ?
