oil filter filtration

[turboaccord1]

which brand oil filter's, filter out the smallest particle "micron".

You should not only base your purchase on microns, but a middle ground of micron grabbing results with flow not hindered too much. Amsoil has the best filter out there now for both the reasons I stated.

K&N oil filter should be up there also.

I'd put K&N one step down with the standard M1 filter.

one might consider that all of the above will let up to 300u pass the paper media as water in the engine swells the media. stuff the maufacturers not going to tell you.

If there is water in the engine swelling anything you have a bigger problem than filter filtration.

part of combustion is water(moisture) and it does affect paper swelling

If the media swells wouldn't the passages in the media become smaller? Wouldn't the media be treated ?
