Remote bypass oil filtration

**HardCharger** · June 16th, 2011 04:25 PM

Hi Doc,

Contacted W&L for Fleetguard and they only had the oil filter (LF3313) but said that they never, ever had the fuel filter (FF5159). Bummer. Then I contacted Volmax for Baldwin and they had both oil (B2) and fuel (BF7535) in stock! This being the case, I guess it's best to go one stop shop and just get the Baldwins (the filters, not the "actors")? I checked out the filters in their website and their appearance looked about right compared to the factory filters.

So using the Baldwin filters, I can still follow your recommended change intervals for oil and fuel filter while running mineral oil, yes?

It's surprising to see that these filters with superior filtration are so much cheaper than their factory equivalents.

I was back reading this thread yet again and I found something. edtf spent P940.00 for his Baldwin B2 oil filter from Volmax and yet when I called a few minutes ago, they were going for P215.00! I was starting to doubt it but when compared to Fleetguard (LF3313) from W&L which costs P225.00, it's not really far off so I reckon that prices have gone down?

Might be because the ones you got are old inventory, and the retailer got them for cheap way back. Some of the ones I got were made in 2007. Could also be fakes.

HEY HEY HEY HEY!!!! what!! B2 is now 215!! I think they made a mistake - that is DAMN cheap!!! Those are really good filters. Those can be used on Toyotas, Rovers and I believe some tractors

Better double check because I just got a filter (I can't remember the model right now) and it was 900+ too - I'm sure the B2 isn't far off. Did you talk to Jun (not sure if that is his name - the tall guy - he is a pretty helpful guy) He still remembered me even if I stopped buying from them for almost a year.

Ry,ok din kayang gaimitin ang purolator sa 4jx1? susubukan ko nga rin yung purolator oil filter classic at saka yung fuel filter... kakabili ko lang kanina sa ace hardware yung fuel filter 470.... sa labas naman ako bumili ng oil filter L45722r primary is 280 lang at yung secondary is 120.. wala kasing stock sa acehardware mag order pa... mas mahal ng kunti sa ace....

hahahaha!!!! That I have to admit. My old disco was the reason why I got to find all these filters. I used baldwin B2 oil filter, Baldwin PA-1667-FN - air filter, Baldwin BF587-D - fuel filter. It was way cheaper than those bought from the usual Rover stores and was of industrial quality

I just phoned them for now as I absolutely hate going to the Binondo area and that's what they told me. Like I said, based on the Fleetguard price, it wasn't far off so I reckoned it was accurate but then I re-read your post so...

Marami namang nag po-post ng sagot kaya kurker na lang ako... hehehe

available ba sa volmax yung BD28 or BD7028?
