Heavy bearing wear

Hello again everyone. Ok, so I have a 12.7 series 60 with a little over 250,000 in my Fitzgerald 389. I installed an OPS bypass system on it just before 200,000. When I first installed the system the thing started using oil like crazy. About 3 gallons every 10,000. After a filter change and analysis it slowed on the consumption. First analysis at 25,000 and everything was hunky dory. Just did my second analysis with 50,000 on the oil, and it came back red flagged telling me I have excessive bearing wear. Lead was well over 300. What in the world is going on? Everyone swears by this system, but I seem to be having nothing but trouble. Any ideas?

 

Well guys, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that is seeing issues on these bypass systems. To be clear, I come from the old school mentality on maintenance. Before I installed the system I changed the oil every 10,000 miles. That was fine when I had 1 truck. Then I bought 2. Then I bought 2 more. Then 2 more. Now my trucks run anywhere from 130,000 to 150,000 every year. So on the low side each truck is getting its oil changed 13 times a year at $300 a pop. That's $23,400 a year in oil changes. All the research I did suggested it isn't uncommon for guys to go 150,000+ without changing their oil. So, if I could go from 13 oil changes to 1 per truck per year, that would have saved me a little over $21,000 per year. Not bad with an initial investment of just under $6,000. I looked into it for months, researched it and talked to guys that have them and never once heard a bad thing. Judging by the oil analysis, everything went from just fine to complete crap in 25,000 miles. So while I understand that it looks like the system isn't working and the oil is wore out, I'm asking if anyone has any other theories as to what would be causing those numbers, for the sake of argument I guess. Let's pretend it isn't the oil. I'm just trying to be thorough.
