micron rating?

[h2odrx]

Does anybody know how good these are?

ok I think I found it 10 micron?

No idea. Why not use a whole house water filter? They have from 1-50 micron and I think they are cheaper too.

It's only a buck 59? I got the filter housing for free and just opened it? thought it would be great for a pre then use my whole house down to 1?

water that is soft and clean is much nicer to work with...

The "so called soft" comes from the "SALT solution" that is used to back-flush the filter. I don't think you want "soft" fuel.

They are only rated to 12 PSI

I don't know but that 15M in the description may be the rating.

They are only rated to 12 PSI

but I'd be using it as a gravity filter?

Might be too slow using gravity ....

I've got nothing but time........

12psi ? Hmmmmm, wonder what kind of "vacuum" they can handle ? I'd prefer to have the pump on the receiving end, not the crud end.

I gravity filter all my WMO. Gives the filters time to filter.

micron rating

It seems like all my vids are 1 star in "My Vids" only but when i click on the video it shows the proper rating. Is this the same for you guys or is it just me?

It states that this is a 10 micron filter. That isn't good enough for a Pstroke. The OEM fuel filter is 5 micron and you will be quicklly clogging it and changing a $30 filter.

I have recently started using a Baldwin BF7587 filter as my final filter and am amazed at the difference between it and the Permacool filter I was previously using that claimed to be a 2 miron filter.

The Baldwin filter is much slower in my gravity filtering system and the oil is cleaner meaning no sediment. I would suggest using a filter of this type as your final filter. Even if you are using whole house or other type filters as an intermediate filter. It fits most common 1"-14 filter bases.
