the proper way to filter lets just say 100 gallons of fuel is to pump 100 gallons through your filter setup 7 times so that will be 700 gallons worth of pumping.
I use this policy every batch I make, I use a Parker Filter cart that has a 10 micron and 40 micron filtration system.
It pumps 10 gallons every minute so a 55 gallon drum takes about an hour or less to properly filter.
I usually dump 5 gallons on top of 50 gallons of WMO or add the gas first the 50gallons on top, either way don't matter
cause the pump turns on and it will all be mixed properly.
Those house filters wont hold up at all, they are made for water that's it.
I have found that a pair of filters I use will last thousands of gallons being
pumped through them as long as I am cleaning rather clean waste oil.
I have a lot of tricks to keep the main filters happy, they cost about $50 a piece
So I spend time thinking about what I do to them.
