The factories have been using this system for 50 years because it works ! It takes no pressure for oil to pass thru the paper.

Hmmm.. the paper I was given couldn't be blown through.. maybe it was from the uber cheap filter..

I will forward this over to the guy that showed me the other paper and see what he has to say..

Interesting.. save the photos in case I do a story.. I can make you a star

Steve...Please do your own test so you can see just how easily oil passes thru the paper. You can order the filter cutter from Summit or just use a hack saw. I'm guessing you were trying to breath thru a flat tiny section of filter paper. Now spread out that whole filter paper and see just how much surface area there really is.

I like the quilted, more surface area for the oil and it's softer on my backside should I need to leave one on the side of the road.
