RE: Which filters can be trusted ?

By John - 01/09/2003 8:45:25 PM; IP 142.177.6.74

I use a System 1 re-usable filter (steel mesh inside). It's a pain to clean (a toothbrush and varsol works pretty good), but it will tell you what's going on in your engine. It doesn't have quite as fine a filter as a paper filter, but those small particles are mostly due to carbon particles and regular oil changes will offset the filter not being able to handle that 5 micron stuff. I quite often alternate between the System 1 filter and a paper filter so I can clean the former at my liesure. For some reason I have never seen shavings in the Fram HP-1, just the other Fram, Purolater, etc. filters.

This thread, so far...
