I Hagar is one of the " PUMP " gang. ---- we have recommended for years
that the standard VW filter be augmented by a better --- after-filter --.
At the time the only spin-on I could locate was a 2 micron rated filter designed for
Caterpillar tractors. ----- James Hansen should know about those.
The best --prefilters -- are spinon Househeating filters like Kralinator F 132
and Purolater -- forget the number.
Bunny Bondo is now getting a FRAM P 3500 (afterfilter) --- why ? --because it is small and easy
to hook up. --- It is made by Stanadyne ---Master Filter Element Model 50.
I am not NOT impressed by the design of the VW fuel filter . ( I have one in my hand )
dissected to look at design. Remember I am here to help the hard pressed ones
, the RICH guys can get fancy filters of many different designs. Lots to pick from out
there. -----For really good filters ? --look up Hadraulic filters. ( pricy but NICE).
Hagar.
PS : the problems with spin-ons ? ---da tread . Pays to have a friend with a lathe.
