Can the oil filter be cleaned and reused?

Can the oil filter be cleaned and reused?

Answer:

Oil filter, also called oil box. The function is to filter out the metal debris and dust produced during the engine operation, as well as the accumulated carbon and colloidal precipitate at high temperature, so as to keep the lubricating oil clean and prolong the service life.
The oil filter is not recommended to be reused after cleaning. This is determined by the specificity, precision, and complexity of the oil filter.
Oil filter should have filtering ability, small flow resistance, long service life and other performance. Once these requirements are not met, irreversible damage to the engine will be done
