And just how important have I made them out to be? I'm here in the same boat as dozens if not hundreds of other members here who like to use filters on the higher end of the efficiency scale. You get all bent out of shape when someone says they think an oil filter is a bit lacking if it's only doing 50% @ 20 microns. I think that's a reasonable opionion.
BTW, my inputs here are opinions, just like everyone one else here ... so if you don't like it then move on and go try to bother somebody else. You really are here just to bother people, and I'm sure many of the member here and probably a few of the moderators here can clearly see that. Anyone who sees your posts here and in the other forums all have the same flavor of a rude, belligerent troll that is looking for any kind of friction he can create in the forums.

They do have fuel filters and air filters. Most air filters have foam pre-filters. That's because the manufacturers know what's important.
Today I began to service a cold planer. 700 HP C-18 CAT. FOUR air filters the size of trash cans, TWO fuel filters, and buried deep TWO oil filters. The engine alone costs more than you will make in your lifetime. The boss don't care about what or how many filters, just how much does it cost? If it has oil filters, they get replaced with a WIX before the start of the season. If it doesn't have oil filters, he's happy it doesn't cost him money to replace. He's smart enough to know you don't block them off either so spare me your deflection.
You really are pretty full of yourself. LoL

Dude, this is an oil filter forum ... so yes, oil filters are what the focus is and what's getting attention here. The only thing you're gonna "nip in the bud" is your membership here.
