Hi, Brian:
As you know, I'm reticent to put forth an opposing point of view, but here
goes:
Racor recommends 30 or 10 micron primaries with a 500-hour change interval;
Lugger recommends changing the secondary at 600 hours. Based on experience, I
believe that's conservative, and so I go about twice that. Of course, I buy
fuel from trusted sources.
Last October, I changed the 30-micron Racor primaries and the Lugger (Wix)
2-micron on-engine filter. Now, 813 meter hours and 2195 gallons of fuel
later, I am still on the same filters, and have yet to switch the primary over.
The gauge on the Racors reads the same as it did last fall.
Regards,
John

>> In normal operation the secondary is receiving fuel that has already
been filtered down to 2 micron so it will have great life. Now I would love to
here opposing points of view.
