MF 135 spin on oil filter

Last year I rebuilt my tractor and added a new oil pump. After doing this I started blowing the rubber gaskets around my cartridge filter so I bought the conversion for a spin on.
Apparently after several hours of research, I found out I was sold a unit for a Perkins 3 cyl. diesel not gas. So essentially I'm trying to figure out what filter I need, and can buy at my local TSC or Walmart with anything for reference. I also can't figure out what bypass PSI the gas perkins recommends, all I can find is info for the diesel.
 

Not sure about the relief valve, I just assumed I bought cheap filters with bad seals. Oil gauge is pegged until warm then it drops to about 2/3rds.

Are the diesel oil filters the same as gas then? Cross reference charts have me using anything from 15psi-17psi bypass valve setting (WIX 51460) to 8psi bypass valve setting (Baldwin BT215).
 
Try installing a NEW OIL GAUGE in PSI to verify OIL PRESSURE EG...0>60 psi:

Well my shop manual lists the required oil filter bypass setting at 13-17 psi. for the AG3.152.

So a Wix 51460 filter it is.
