Have Yanmar 6 cyl 6LYA STP, anyone know which micron rating I should be using for the Racor?

It has 2 micron now, seems pretty fine, asking to plug?

I run a 10 micron in the Racor 2 micron on engine.
Some run 2 on Racor as it's easier to change.
 
There is quite a debate on this point. Technically you will get better life out of both the primary Racor and the secondary Yanmar filter by going with 10 micron on the primary and 2 on the secondary.

But as Bacchus notes above, it is pretty easy to change the Racor filter so many just go with 2 microns on both.
