Thats part of my point exactly. Ugly dirty filter doesn't equal restricted filter. There is a big misconception about filters stopping working when they look dirty vs actually being plugged. No not as big a deal on a $20 car filter as it is on a $50 or $100 tractor filter but i like having an actual measurement vs eyeballing it. I'm putting together a version for fuel filters something similar to what i have on my aftermarket Racor Ill post pics when i get home.
