Many moons ago when I worked in Aviation I noticed something about engine oil in the propellor system. The propellor on a constant speed or feathering propellor uses engine oil to control the prop pitch. The piston cylinder at the front of a propellor that allows the propellor to change pitch would get clogged with engine oil gunk because of the centrifuge action of the propellor spinning. Sadly I was never smart enough to think how this oil separation by centrifuge could be used to filter the oil in a car. If a propellor is left unserviced and not overhauled eventually the oil sludge and filth will stop the piston from being able move and control the pitch of the propellor. This idea is a bit like the Dyson's of filtering oil.
Not a bad idea, But the plastic window may melt if or when it comes in contact with the HOT motor oil. Use it as an experimental observation piece but please, don’t drive with that modded centrifuge cover in use.

Hello.
Do you have a centrifuge to fit a 2012 Spanish built Nissan Navara D40 Diesel?.

Fit Nissan Navara D40 diesels?.
Please continue video for ln106
Is it working to filter wmo ?

The plastic window was for observation only while the engine and oil were relatively cool. Yes, obviously the plastic will melt at high temps
