i was changing my oil and i found this. can anyone tell me what it is. it looks like it fits on the oil pump outlet. when it was in the cars the oil presshure was 30-60 and when i took it out it was at 30- 80. can anyone help me.

thankyou.

 

i forgot to say that i found it when i took the oil filter off.

 

Looks like part of the filter.
Looks similar to whats inside a aftermarket oil filter that we fit on mx5's.
Could be the same on your filter ?

 

If you had a FRAM filter on, its not part of the filter.

 

it was a mobile one filter

 

also is what is normal for an FD oil presshure. now it seems to go up to that hash mark above 60 and below 120. then i get on it. is that average.

 

Sounds normal. Sounds like it was reducing pressure before.
