Looks like I won't be using either of the 2 different sized Dubro filters I bought

Sheese, I want some filtered FLOW AREA

I don't trust they'd let enough gas through especially with a few particles added

Why make a larger frame filter and have such a small filter pass area?

not metal screens on either

I liked the great planes filter for glow better and it is small for the 30cc gas application imo

I'll look elsewhere, I can always step up tubing size to accomodate a lawn equipment filter

My big 3-Ws both have much larger filters and no probs
I would sugest test the flows of the fuel filters you have. Think about this....most filters you find in chainsaws ect can pass fuel very good when in good shape. If you was talking glow fuel, some walbro type carbs will not pass glow fuel fast enough. With gas you should have no broblems if you filter the fuel going into your main fuel container & use a clunk type of filter in your airplane fuel tank. Use some common easy ways to test the filters you do have, and replace if needed. All will be well then. Capt,n
What are some common ways to test these filters. I don't know how you would test the flow rate or what it should be.

Thanks Jk
