I can't find any fuel filters on that site. Well, not the ones I'm looking at at least (can't even find any Racor numbers on there)

How about this for a pump-through filtering of WMO:

http://www.jmesales.com/item/103712/Cim-Tek-Blu-Flame-Filter-Kit.aspx

As in, we hook up this to the oil drum's drain, then put the air pressure in the drum from the top, and let the WMO flow through this thing and in my fuel jugs for future use... Good idea, bad idea?


That is most likely a standard filter-head that will accept a bejillion different types of filter-canisters, oil, fuel, or water, in as many micron ratings as you desire.

Check the filter dimensions and thread-size to be sure.


I know NAPA has one of those generic heads that they offer numerous different cannisters for.

Why not use a common filter head like a detroit primary or secondary, cheap filters and readily available.? I have lots of these laying around.

I made it out to be 10-micron, based on the filter label... And no TSC anywhere near me, guess that's what I get for living in mostly urban area.

Same deal like with TSC tho, no NAPA store anywhere within a 10-mile radius, there used to be one right down street from school but they closed an year ago.

You wanna part with one head + one 10-micron filter? :D

You must be used to city living; around here, it's at least ten miles before we start seeing any kind of store, and 100-mile or farther to find a store that actually has stuff on the shelf, instead of hearing that "it'll be here in the morning" crap.

yeah, a 10-mile drive to a store is perfectly okay if tis open road where I can get up to 55 and stay there, with our local mental midgets however you can barely go through two-three lights and someone's gonna do something stupid and screw up your rhythm. That said, I'm driving 35 miles on Thursday to pick up a brush guard for my truck :D
