I thought this would be a good topic, do you guys agree that as an oil filter captures more
dirt, that it becomes more efficient? So if a new filter traps 99% of particles 15 microns and
bigger, then after 5k that number could be 99% of particles 10 microns and bigger?
Although then the flow rate would also start decreasing too.
The tech rep at AC Delco didn't agree with me on this theory, however he didn't give
a reason why.
