Fuel Filters

Hello All,

As I was doing my annual maintenance, I was changing my fuel filters. I noticed that the Nappa and Wix (#33390) filters have a mesh size of 10 microns and the Universal #298854 has a mesh size of 2 microns.

Can you please tell me if running the larger mesh size has caused anyone problems?

I am unsure if a piece of crud less than 10 microns would cause any problems in the injectors.

Any help greatly appreciated.

I have ran the NAPA filters for over 6 yrs now with out any troubles. But I did replace my injectors this year with new ones as I have over 1000 hrs and had the old one rebuilt for spares.
