Like Carter used to say about some of their competitors' strainer screens in a carburetor inlet- - - -"They're for rocks, marbles, and bowling balls!" Ideally, an engine should have a full flow filter to strain out the big chunks that can damage bearings, and a bypass filter that slowly removes particles down to about 1 micron and dumps the oil back into the crankcase. That "fine" filter won't be able to flow enough oil volume to keep the engine lubed properly. Jerry
