Fleetguard LF9027 (
post; this may not be accurate):
Full Flow: 90% at 30 micron
Bypass : 50% of 10 micron
Amsoil:
Full Flow: 98.7% at 15 microns.
Bypass : 98.0% at 2 microns.
Not sure if the comparison is from the same test (single pass vs. multiple pass).
Not sure about capacity. When will Amsoil plug up from sludge/soot and reduce filtering at 2 microns?
It has also been said by Fleetguard that engine wear is between 2 and 22 microns.
Look at the prices. Amsoil is expensive. It might be worth changing filters and oil more often, than buying a single expensive one.
