Reviews
The inline filter is very well made and can be cleaned very easy. My only concerns in my application is the 10 micro screen is to fine. I have another filter down stream before the injection rail to catch the small stuff, so I dont want this filter to plug before the other filter. They are trying to see if this filter can be purchase with a coarser screen. Then it will safer for my home built application.
