Baxter Performance Spin-On Oil Filter Adapter for Jeep 3.6 Pentastar Engine
Want to stop the 3.6 Pentastar dry start-ups in your Jeep JL, JT or JK? Baxter Performance makes a spin-on oil filter adapter that is easy to install, it makes your oil filter changes easier and most importantly, it has an anti-drainback valve in it to help the oil primed in the top part of the engine.
The 3.6 Pentastar engine doesn't have an anti-drain back vale in it. So about 35 minutes after you shut the engine off, all the oil has drained back into the oil pan. Then when you start it up again, it can take up 3.5 seconds for the oil to reach everywhere it is needed. Now that probably won't cause a catastrophic failure today or tomorrow, but do that time and time again and that little bit of wear could add up and shorten the life of your engine.
The Baxter Performance Spin-On Oil Filter Adapter replaces the cartridge filter with an adapter that accepts a spin-on oil filter and best of all, the Baxter Performance adapter has a check valve in it that keeps the oil up in the top of the engine, so no more DRY STARTS!

Baxter drilled a hole and placed a camera inside the oil filter to demonstrate what happens without & with a Baxter: • Cartridge Filter drain...

Also I couldn't quite get the thread lock adjusted to a place where I faced zero resistance screwing in / out, but doesn't look like any threads are damaged either.

@jamesmurphy9346 6 месяцев назад

In the late 60s and early 70s Lee Oil Filters were popular and successful. Chrysler came out with a service bulletin saying NOT to use Lee Oil Filters due to the Filter allowing Oil to drain out of the Filter and basically every time you started your engine the Oil pump had to refill the Filter and it was a dry start . Here we are in 2023. Some things never change. Good info !

@esmpmedia8586 7 месяцев назад

So I have been looking into this Baxter for a while now and finally just got mine installed like yesterday. I got my JT launch edition used but in great condition around 21000k miles. I notice the weird sound every time I cranked to start the vehicle. Took to the dealership and was told it’s normal, “how the engine sounds for this 3.6L”. But I everyday it starts to bother me to the point where I am reluctant to the start the car knowing that it would give me this “metal to metal” kind of sound at the crank. So I started to do my own little research and found your channel, which is extremely useful especially in this particular scenario. So I decided to ordered but it was back ordered. It finally came in yesterday and installed immediately. To my surprise, that weird metal to metal sound at the crank up simply GONE!! So I just want to add my personal experience, hopefully it helps other viewers. I do sympathize the cost of it though like everyone else mentioned . However, for my scenario, eliminating that weird sound each time I started the car, it is much worth it already, let alone whatever the benefit it is claimed to have which is remains to be determined. Thank you for such a detailed and helpful video instruction. From one happy jeeper 😊

So I've worked on a number of different 3.6 pentastar. Best thing you can do for any pentastar is run 5w 30 in my personal and just checked the valve train, and it's as tight as day one. Both my kids jeeps have had to do the top end do to running light weight oil. So in my opinion, run the 5w30. The only reason the use a lighter weight oil, is slightly better fuel mileage. Which equals about a mile or two out of a tank of fuel

The rockers have needle bearings though, they should hold oil in them. A two stroke engine survives with just a mist of oil blowing around thanks to using needle and roller bearings that retain some oil film.

I run 5 quarts of 5-30 Semi Synthetic and 1 Quart of Lucas.... No issues and it runs cooler, and all my cam sensor codes vanished. most 3.6 issues with the valve train are caused by running the 5-20 crap oil. The cam phasers love the 5-30

Accelerator to the floor and turn the key...let turn for 3 seconds and then let go of the accelerator and the Jeep starts. If someday I do decide to buy, I will go through Northridge as I've done for plenty of mods for my Wrangler to help it when offroading.

Does the "clear flood" work on a 2016 Wrangler ? It's a good idea. I run synthetic oil too. Lately I've been working from home. If my Wrangler sits for two weeks I hear a VVT rattle.

I have a 1989 Isuzu Trooper with a GM 2.8 (now 3.1) V-6. Those geniuses have the oil pressure switch that has to have oil pressure before the engine will start much less run. My Ford 460 has a manual choke on the carb and I will crank the engine for a second or two for oil pressure to come up before I pull it out to start. Too bad I cannot do anything for my Jeep Wrangler; btw I had a major manufacturers oil filter fail its anti-drainbsack valve where it drained the oil in the valve train and crank back through the filter and oil pump.

@scottchamberlain7338 7 месяцев назад

why not just pre oil like you showed, which is a cool hack I didn't know about? $330 plus for an oil filter adapter? That I have to use an air compressor to change oil? That forces all the oil I'm supposedly saving out of the oil galleys? That I then have to pre oil when oil change is complete, right? Because all the oil is out of the galleys per the air being injected? Why not just use the pre oil step without the adapter? This might be a thing on 1st and 2nd gen 3.6, but the 2018 version and beyond have been built to prevent wear noted in earlier designs. I'm on my 4th 3.6, all versions, over 250,000 miles between them all, only one to tap a little was the 2013 3.6. Fixed with lucas low viscosity modifier additive.

@davidk6668 10 месяцев назад

Two questions. You were showing a metal oil filter holder/cooler where the Jeep JK has a plastic one. Being plastic it does have a tendency to crack and start leaking as I have heard. Wouldn’t this device put more strain on the plastic since it sits higher and would probably vibrate back and forth more? You were demonstrating with a Jeep JL. What modifications do you need to do to the JK to install this? Aren’t there better oils out there that tend to cling to the engine parts after oil drains away and reduce wear until fresh oil is pumped to the parts?

@northridgenation 10 месяцев назад

Great questions. 1) Yes, the plastic ones tend to develop leaks as they get older. The metal one we had was an aftermarket replacement. 2) Yes, that could add more strain to the plastic bowl, if you have a higher mileage engine, it might be a good time to replace that oil cooler. They take a while to do, but it's not too hard. Maybe we should do a video how-to? 3) The JK 3.6 is pretty much the same, except they have those hoses I mentioned that you need to move out of the way. Make sure to get the correct year adapter for your JK. 4) Yes, there are good oils out there, but they all will eventually drain away.

There are so many 3.6 Pentastar engines in vehicles out there, the problems are magnified. The engine has been out a long time…nearly 14 years…and used in the Wrangler, Gladiator, Grand Cherokee, Challenger, Charger, 300, Grand Caravan, Pacifica, RAM 1500, and the smaller 3.2L Pentastar used in other Chrysler models. With that many engines out there…yeah, a few have the cam lobes / lifter problem but most do not. Change your oil regularly; it’s a great engine.

Late model JKs have an engine cover that will not allow this oil filter device to be used unless the cover is left off. While the OEM filter does not have a check valve to prevent draining, it would appear the engine oil pump is more than adequate to suipply what ever oil is needed shortly after start up since over 10 million of these engines have been built and it doesn't appear oil related failures with the OEM filter is an issue!

@mcspartan5822 8 месяцев назад

That’s incorrect though… rocker arm failure at random intervals is by far the most common (and arguably the ONLY common) failure on the Pentastar engine; and that’s believed to be caused by needle bearing failure due to lack of lubrication. The argument is that since the oil drains back down to the pan while sitting, the valve train remains un-oiled for the first 4ish seconds upon every single start up, which obviously accelerates wear and exacerbates the rocker arm failure. This product attempts to help save these rocker arms.

@LWRC 8 месяцев назад

@@mcspartan5822 There has never been a published total number of rocker arm failure for the Pentastar 3.6 engine so it is difficult to tell the total population involved. But certainly enough for a class action law suit against Stellantis. While the rocker arms do fail, there hasn't been any analysis other than they failed and it is unknown whether it is attributed to oil starvation, poor or improper heat treat, failure of the parent metal of the needle bearings due to any number of reasons. So to say the rocker arms failed because of oil starvation is jumping to conclusions without all the facts! There are other engine manufacturers that use the cartridge filter design as on the Pentastar 3.6 which the oil inside the filter housing can drain back to the crankcase once the engine is shut off. None of those engines have a check valve either because if they did, you would need a method, as in this aftermarket unit, to use compressed air to force the oil inside the filter housing out so you don't make a complete mess when you turn the housing loose! And in those other engines, I haven't heard of one engine failure attributed to oil starvation!!! While this after market solution certainly doesn't hurt, it doesn't prove that the rocker arm failures on the Pentastar 3.6 was attributed to oil starvation! If you have data that prove otherwise, please share!

As soon as I heard the rocker/lifter tick on my 2013 JKUR, I stopped driving it and a few days later I did the work to replace all of them with the new "improved" rockers and lifters. Guess what? After sitting for several days, the rockers and cam shafts still had a coating of oil on them. I use a high quality oil - Penzoil Ultra Platinum but have also used Amsoil. Those are the only two I would use and are the highest quality rated oils you can buy. Still got the tick. Anyway, this initially sounded interesting but I"m just not sold on the "engineering". The Pentastar 3.6 isn't the best engine, but it's not terrible. I've got 130k on my almost daily-driven, Arizona off-roaded 2013 JKUR.

@gushoo6076 21 день назад

Mopar oil is actually Pennzoil that get's branded Mopar. If they use ultra platinum and not straight platinum oil mix from Pennzoil than there is not really a "higher quality" oil. Amsoil maybe? If they are using straight platinum blend than there is better, especially in the cold start/cold climate scenario. All my opinion here ( not talking just about the valve train noise, but about complete protection ), I think the most important thing to do is change the oil every 3K no matter what the oil you are using. We had a Jeep Patriot that started making valve train ticking noise @ 90K. Still going well at 165k +/- and then traded it in due to never really liking the Patriot to begin with. I was not running Mopar oil or ultra platinum when we had this vehicle. I was however nervous over it like everyone should be. Glad to here no more noise though. I hope the additive package in the oil that you are using will do a good job at everything and not just stop the ticking for you and not be as good in other areas if you know what I mean. What oil did you switch to?

Back in the day synthetics were marketed as "the super oil that bonds to metal and help prevent premature wear". Anyone remember Slick 50, lol..... That said our JL's and JT's call for synthetic oil to begin with so does that mean synthetics no longer protect our engines? As an Engineer, I don't disagree with products that help and provide benefits, but in this case does it make sense for the cost of what it's selling for? Are there that many problems with the 3.6 valve train? For me I'd be more interested if anytime I see someone promoting this product they also provide facts, data, numbers that support the issues, causes and or concerns. If someone was proving or showing that out of say a million 3.6s sold in the last few years that 30 or 40 % of them had valve train issues then I'm more likely to consider this product and or promote it myself on my channel. Lol. But seriously it appears to be a product that does what it says it's going to do and it maybe it should be considered as "cheap insurance", but as someone below mentioned where's the long term testing info and or as I suggest where's the data that makes us as 3.6 consumers want to spend money on this vs our suspension or other jeep stuff. Not bashing here, just posing a question.

Just google or YT Pentastar valvetrain issues, you'll see plenty results. Then Google Pentastar oiling diagram.

The bad rocker arms did it to me at 97k miles. So if this problem was the oil getting up there then I'd buy it. But i haven't heard that it was.

My dads 2013 has 180k on it and he's always went to local lube shop, so who knows what oil they were using. At 120k I replaced the cooler cause o rings blew out of plastic.. I think issues are from short stop and start trips. The us mail service has a ton of vans with this motor. The ones that run all day no issues, the ones that deliver to condos and businesses where frequent starts and stops short runs, seem to have the valve train issues. But not often

Remember the Mobil One adds where they ran an engine with no oil? Well, someone drained the oil out of my mower, and I mowed my acre and a half lawn not realizing what had been done and then next time I mowed my lawn I checked my oil only to find out it was empty, so I filled it with Mobil One again and three years on she's just fine, made a believer out of me. A 19 HP Kawasaki engine.

@@stephenwest798 That's a great example of lubrication. What we want in the top of these engines is oil pressure to get the cam phasers and timing chain tensioner up to pressure and working properly. You cannot do that with a thin film of oil left over. You need oil volume and pressure.

Would this void my power train warranty? Seems like a good preventative fix.

Our local dealer is pretty lenient with modifications. But, it is a possibility that a dealer would flag this. Some people see it like the Tazer, a great add-on and easy to remove before taking their Jeep in for warranty service.
