The primary Racor 120 is 2micron, while the on-engine Napa filter is 10micron. This just doesn't make sense to me... What would be a good setup? The engine is a Beta 3cyl. I'm thinking either 30/10 or 10/2... Cheers, Alex. PS: I would really appreciate a quick response, as I need to change them tomorrow morning.

Yeah it will. Nothing was making it to the 10 micron at the engine as it was all gummed up at the 2 micron. Paul In a message dated 2/16/2013 5:07:58 P.M.
