The valve is designed to open when the oil filter becomes clogged or when the oil is too thick. This allows the oil to bypass the filter through a center tube. The oil then goes straight to the engine to prevent starvation and damage.<br \/>If the bypass valve doesn\u2019t open when needed, the filter will swell and eventually burst. When this happens, the engine looses all oil pressure. The end result is either extensive engine damage, or complete engine failure. Choosing a high-quality oil filter for your vehicle helps to prevent this from happening.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-636e01b next_prev_margin elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"636e01b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-d9c85b3\" data-id=\"d9c85b3\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6519c9c elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"6519c9c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><div class=\"nextprev_section_nav\" id=\"nextprev_section_nav\"><div class=\"prev_button\"><a class=\"next_prev_anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/en\/resources\/articles\/how-does-an-oil-filter-work\/\">PREV POST<\/a><\/div><div class=\"next_button\"><a class=\"next_prev_anchor\" href=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/en\/resources\/articles\/which-oil-change-schedule-should-you-use\/\">NEXT POST<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8438d96\" data-id=\"8438d96\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f68473b elementor-widget elementor-widget-shortcode\" data-id=\"f68473b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"shortcode.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!-- CATEGORIES for desktop view -->\r\n\t<div class=\"all-categories mb-3\">\r\n\t\t<p id=\"follow-use-text\">FOLLOW US<\/p>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"social-icons mb-5\">\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"social-icons-links\" target=\"_balnk\" href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/InterfilFilters\/\"><img\r\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/wp-content\/themes\/astra\/assets\/images\/facebook.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"social-icons-links\" target=\"_balnk\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/InterfilMexico\"><img\r\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/wp-content\/themes\/astra\/assets\/images\/twitter.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"social-icons-links\" target=\"_balnk\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/interfilfilters\/\"><img\r\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/wp-content\/themes\/astra\/assets\/images\/instagram.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"social-icons-links\" target=\"_balnk\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/premium-guard-inc\"><img\r\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/interfil.com\/wp-content\/themes\/astra\/assets\/images\/linkedin.png\" alt=\"\"><\/a>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t<div class=\"premium-blog-filter-div\">\r\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"categories_heading pb-3\">CATEGORIES<\/h5>\r\n\t\t\t<ul class=\"categories-ul\" id=\"categories-ul-desktop\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category active\" id=\"0\" data-filter=\"0\"\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\tonclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">All Articles<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category\" id=\"4\" data-filter=\"air-filters\" onclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">Air Filters<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category\" id=\"5\" data-filter=\"cabin-air-filters\" onclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">Cabin Air Filters<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category\" id=\"7\" data-filter=\"installation-guide\" onclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">Installation Guide<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category\" id=\"6\" data-filter=\"oil-filters\" onclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">Oil Filters<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"javascript:;\" class=\"category\" id=\"20\" data-filter=\"tech-tips\" onclick=\"categoryClicked(this)\">Tech Tips<\/a><\/li>\t\t\t<\/ul>\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shortcode\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the Function of the Bypass Valve in an Oil Filter?
