Are you guys putting in a primary filter on your dmax's... I have a racor r60 on the frame, but I am not sure yu need it... Seems like that maybe a lot of hype....

Thanks!

I alsao have a racor as a primary filter. Dunno if you need it but it sure is a little extra assurance that water will not get through......

I will be running a secondary filter system in the near future. Been trying to figure out if it will be the FASS or Preporator. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM??????????????????

Over priced filter systems????? That is the question I aim to answer. Guys that currently have NO secondary filtering might find these units affordable. But for the guys who already have a secondary filter it is kind of a stretch to reinvent the wheel.

The deal is they supposedly remove the air out of the fuel. It is claimed that this air will corrode or pit the injector. The picture from GMorrison of the injector. That might of been caused by air?

I aim to bench both units for air removal. This will tell me if they are no more than high priced filters.

Interesting..... But if you wanted to remove and trap air, would you not just buy the MEGA......

He said MEGA. HAHAHAHA. Mega easely Gathers Air!

No really, imagine the mega with a hole drilled into it providing a bleed off point for all of the trapped air.

Sisce I put the mega on I have found no air, could be the lift pump, got stupid and put a cat in line after the lift pump, so now I have 4 filters. Mega will probably last for ever. I do a D/P check to see if I have a filter plugging. Got a part # of a filter head that will except the cat filter and save you a lot of $
