Ron Sa said: (quoted from post at 11:16:11 01/07/10) Keith, You make some good points. Regarding the bubbles, I am aware that in most designs the air does not bubble thru the oil reservoir but another web site claims that is does. My point was that even if that were the case, a large portion of the fine dust stays within the bubble not getting close to the oil. A particle of fine dust moves thru the air about as fast as 140 weight gear oil pours in cold temperatures. (This forum seems to not take long replies so will try to reply in several chunks.

Ron, you can beat this horse from now on, but all the discussion is academic, theorizing & speculation without supporting facts (i.e., test results similar to those in the link that someone posted for Duramax filter comparisons). Yeah, it fills the time on a cold winter day, but that is about it. Kinda like the ethanol argument on another thread where Jon claims that he gets better mileage with ethanol than with pure gasoline........the physics doesn't support it & the argument can go on forever, BUT then real world testing by not only the EPA, but nearly every automobile magazine published, rears it's ugly head & low & behold, they all show lower gas mileage with ethanol! Surprise, surprise as Gomer used to say. Gee, I guess that's why they use higher flow capacity injectors or lengthen the injector squirt time of ethanol capable vehicles.

No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
