rednose RNS10S Donating Members 2,229 Member For: 18y 2m 17d Gender: Male Posted 22/08/13 06:08 AM Share Posted 22/08/13 06:08 AM I have heard the coopers are ok but do not know for sure as I do not use them, I have got in some compatible filters but are $20 each, trying to work out a better price based on buying in bulk, they fit straight in place, I opened one up about a month ago after about 5k of E85 use and it appeared not to be swollen at all and still intact, even after my crude methods of opening itIf it lasts 20,000 (every 2nd service), it would be well worth it, keep us posted Mick.Next group buy?

LOOSEBF Member 106 Member For: 16y 5m 22d Gender: Male Posted 04/09/13 04:48 AM Author Share Posted 04/09/13 04:48 AM Any one else got any opinions on this? I need to decide by tomorrow what I will be putting in rather be a coopers ( only filter I know of that's e85 comparable and will fit standard fitting) or going a aftermarket max 10micron Like stated in the thread above...
