What is the rationale? My understanding is that paper filters generally let through a certain amount of substantially larger particles than specified, and that screen filters are much more effective at maintaining an upper limit to particle size. Long ago we would use a screen filter and a bypass filter containing a roll of toilet paper. I don't remember the name of the system. For trucks & autos. Seemed very effective.Really, a nicely designed and documented study would be nice to read. Got a ref?
Yeah, we just went through this a couple of weeks ago. A search ought to find it. The stainless filter let larger particles through.
Do what you want, but as far as I know the two oils from Amsoil that you mention do not meet spec for your 1400.
Occam's razor, ever heard of it? Don't over analyze this stuff. Everything listed in the owners manual is there for a reason. All the stuff you need is on Amazon.
