Interesting thing is, large diesel engines supplement the full-flow oil filter with a bypass unit to keep the oil cleaner. There are a number of aftermarket outfits offering add-on bypass filter kits for diesel pickups to keep the oil cleaner and extend oil life between changes. What they are removing is the soot and stuff that gets by the piston rings, the same as you are talking about. Bottom line, the oil filter system on an "N" does a darn good job for it's age! (When the "N"'s first came out, and for years after that, many cars and trucks had NO oil filter.) I have run detergent oil in all my engines, about FOREVER, and have had NO unusual wear or overhauls neded, and this is in a real farm working environment. So, the bottom line is, run what you're confortable with but don't scare folks needlessly about detergent oil!
