Oh it's alright buddy, just stop calling me Jared. I'm no sandwich eating child molester. My name is Garrett :)
Who says I was talking to you ? Just kidding. I'm old and forget names. My wife threw away my "name cheat sheet" where I had all the avator names matched with there real names. Now I'm having to start all over again. My nephews name is Jared and for some strange reason you remind me of him.

Nice info, yet what's the point of any of this? If the pressure is a few psi "over" under some condition, what does it matter?

I'm using the JAtonka spin on oil and fuel filters. Should I be concerned?

According to the spec sheet you should have a minimum and maximum pressure to the Hydraulic Head. When we went with our own design for spin-on fuel filters we needed a relief valve. In the stock unit the relief valve is "built in" the filter housing. The first one I went with was causing problems for some members so I found another one that works better.
The only thing you need to worry about Brian is that your relief valve is working properly. There have been issues over the years of valves sticking in their bores.
