I want a filter that will pass thru the metallic particles in restore. I think the STP I have on it is one of the freer flowing ones.
I just want to catch the large chunks.

Ahh dangit you are right! Didn't even think about that, also a good because even when it is fully loaded the microglass should stay put and not break free like a cellulose could.

Why bother?
Restore won't restore your engine.
But to answer your question, I'd use a FRAM OCOD with a hanging oil pressure relief (bypass) valve.

Is this really a known issue? It's hard for me to believe that Restore would get caught by any filter. Pretty hard to believe they would make an engine treatment that got removed by an engine oil filter. Not that it will work anyway.
Would think one of the K&P/Scott's stainless steel mesh ones would be the worst, they're only rated at 35 microns (AFAIK).
wcod! ( white can of death ) aka purolator. They will tear and let all the oil and particles through

Fram Ultra.
He's still mad that his transmission died.
WIX XP (NAPA Platinum) is the most free flowing filter on the market.
Maybe moroso or Honda or Toyota filters
Does anyone know the particle size of restore? That is what you would need to know first.

I believe it has. There's no more visible white smoke puffing from the oil filler hole. And it seems to run better with more power as I continue to drive it.
Too many different answers here. Maybe I should stick with the 3 dollar STP.

It is about 5 to 15 microns, mostly. They say it won't get catch.

At 5 to 15 microns, some will be caught if using any Fram, napaGold, any filter that has at least some glass fibers mixed in. Go with a ProLine oil filter from pep boys, any other cheap all paper filter for lower 4548-12 peformance.

I used some Restore in my old lawnmower recently because it was smoking, getting hot and would only run for about ten minutes before dying. After adding it to the oil it smoked like crazy the first couple times I ran it. But now it starts right up....doesn't smoke and stays running. This stuff works.
Wix XP / Napa Platinum
Quality construction and free flowing.
