there is some misunderstandings about micron rating for filters.

For our stuff i do like what bup has said ..break the motor in what i do is first hr of run time change it ,and break in oil ...switch to oil i plan on using ...run abt 5 hrs on this set up,,,on third time i switch to the wix filter ,,,,this is just my way as oil and filters r perks with my job ..

break in you want to capture as much and as fine of wear metals as possible. then change your oil. I like that for any engine regardless of what it is.

and another read about Micron ratings.

Yes there are a ton of oil filter threads here but every time one springs up I learn something new!

Any thoughts on K&N for marine use? I did a search without much help. I’m running an HP4 and that nut on the bottom is mighty handy.

I have been running K&N oil filters on my boat and turboed street car with good results.

mobil one oil filters are the exact same as KN oil filters

and both are very good filters that use a synthetic filter media that won't swell up with some moisture in the oil.

I use the K&N on both my Yukon and Honda Fit. The nut on the filter makes it much easier to get the filter on and off. On the Yukon it is a royal PIA to remove the filter.

I have used K&N Filters exclusively, been happy with the results. They seem to be the same quality year after year.
