Routing of canister oil lines ????

Posted by Way Up Here on August 20, 2005 at 09:58:01 from (64.42.242.25):

On a remotely located canister oil filter (with the drop in cartridge), which oil line (pressured or return) goes to which fitting on the steel canister? I've been told both ways. Right now I've hooked up the "pressure" line from the block into the bottom of the canister and up into the tube inside, then through the filter from the inside to outside, then return to the oil pan. More than one guy has told me this is wrong yet I have seen it done this way on many tracctors. Plus, on another canister I have here, it is stamped IN at the bottom (up into the inner tube in the canister) and OUT on the side of the canister. So which way is correct? Does the filter work better with oil moving from inside to outside, or from outside to inside? I know fuel filters work from outside(inlet) to inside (outlet) and they're usually marked.
