T&T: 2 10 30 Micron Filters??

In the past I have advocated the use of 2 or 10 micron filters in the 
primary filters, IF the secondaries were difficult or nearly impossible 
to change while underway.

That said, I am inclined to think that such filters are hard on some 
lift pumps and should not be used if practical.

The primary filter is intended to remove water and to prevent large 
particles from damaging the lift pump or clogging the fuel line 
downstream of the filter.
