I've heard that wmo increases your EGT's. Should I get a Pyrometer to keep an eye on things? My engine is all stock.
Also anybody have experience not using a water block filter? I'm thinking of just filtering wmo to 3 micron and making sure I don't take from the bottom of the barrel. shouldn't the fuel/water seperator catch the little I miss. Just want to make sure I don't do any serious damage. Any thoughts?

i have noticed no signifacent differance on my pyro but others have. trouble with WMO is it is not regulated like fuel to a certain cetain rating some have reported jumps in temps. depends on the levels you are running but if you are running a heavy mix i would highly reccomend it, it should be on the top of the (gages to get) list anyway.

i dont run a water block but i filter down to 1 mic. others do and heat there oil to boil off any moisture as well. i run my oil through a heated system on the truck though and start and stop on diesel.
