There was debris, but it appeared to be silicone sealant from the pan(no gasket). Did not see metal. When I get it home next weekend I will cut the filter apart and see what I can find.
There was, however, a small amount (drops) of coolant in the bottom of the pan. That concerns me, for sure.

This is one of my weaker subjects, so let me know if I am wrong please...

Is there any chance a piece of silicone got up into one of the lines, causing the jumping pressure?

As for the bypass valve...I was thinking of the valve that is in the inlet passage of the oil cooler adapter? I believe that is the valve that kicks in if the cooler is plugged?

I believe he has a electrical problem in the shutdown system it resets while he is changing the filter ,the filter getting plugged is another subject it may have the wrong filter you can run 1 without a filter with plugging the lines if he has a remote mount filter

If it's electrical, can he isolate and disconnect the low oil pressure circuit just long enough to see if that is the issue? Or would that be too dangerous to the engine if both gauges are reading properly?
