Operational testing of the
centrifugal oil cleaner
Operational testing need only be carried out if it
is suspected that the centrifugal oil cleaner is
malfunctioning. For example, if there are unusu-
ally few deposits given the distance driven.
1. Run the engine until it reaches normal oper-
ating temperature.
2. Turn off the engine and listen for the sound
from the rotor. It should continue rotating for
a time, even when the engine has stopped.
3. Use your hand to feel if the filter housing is
vibrating.
4. If the filter housing is not vibrating, disman-
tle and check the centrifugal oil cleaner.
