A pressurized oil filter/carbon separation device includes a housing containing a plurality of separator chambers, a transfer chamber and a filter chamber. The housing includes a dirty oil inlet through which lubricating oil from an internal combustion chamber is delivered the separator chambers for serial flow therethrough. Within each chamber, carbon particles from the lubricating oil are separated from the oil flow owing to the forces of gravity within each chamber. The carbon particles are allowed to exit the lower portions of the separator chamber via discharge pipes at the bottom of the housing. From the last separator chamber, the oil is delivered to the transfer chamber for introduction into a filter chamber which contains a mesh-type filter screen to remove further minute particulates from the oil. The filtered oil exits the housing via a plurality of openings at the top of the housing and is delivered by a discharge pipe back to the internal combustion engine. A pump is provided to pressurize the oil as it passes through the filter/carbon separation device to enhance the cleaning processes of the apparatus. An oil preheater may be provided adjacent the pump to preheat the oil prior to delivery to the filter/separator housing.
