Which is better 2 micron or 30-micron?
Racor recommends that a 2-micron filter only be used in final or secondary filters where the fuel is first filtered by a primary filter. Further, the company says a 30-micron filter should be used as a primary to filter raw or poor-quality fuel before it is further filtered by finer media, such as a 10- or 2-micron.
