[pct-l] Water Hauling on the trail.

Most fuel filters are just made of paper.  However, in my experience good 
water filters generally filter to 0.2 microns.  A super fine fuel filter 
filters to 2 microns.  It will get out the dirt, but not the critters that 
will make you sick.  I don't think they'd be much more effective than a 
coffee filter, and they weigh a lot more.

>>>>>Coolest idea I have seen on filtering near Mex  border ? Hawkeye in
2000's use of a fram fuel filter !!  <<<<

I either tried this or was going to some years ago, but decided against  be
cause of the paper.  If you look at the plastic ones, the paper is a
yellow-orange color.  Doesn't look like "natural" coffee filter paper to 
me.  Does
anyone have any idea about just what is used in the filters...  something 
coated
with di-methyl death-el for purposes not given for us mere  laypeople to
understand ?????    Inquiring minds and all  that.
