I understand what you mean about the filters. I use to work in a bottling plant and one of the items we bottle was distilled water. After it was distilled and pumped into a tank it was run though a 5 micron Millapore filter (3 in a set) then through a 2 micron Millapore filter (3 in a set) before it went into the filler. I could get about 15.000 gallon through them before they were plugged and had to be changed. A set of 3 filters are each about 3' long and were $1600 and change in 1998.
So I do understand the filter system and why its important to keep oil and filters changed @ 100 hours for tractors (sooner if in really dirty conditions) 3000 miles for a gas car or truck and 5000 miles for the diesel 1 ton truck. Oil and filters are the life blood of an engine.
I wonder how many gallons of oil get pumped through the filters @ 100 hours of operation on an average tractor? Bandit
