recommend water separation filter?
anyone running a water separation filter?
I'm planning on taking trips to mexico, and have some concerns regarding the quality of diesel south of the border. I have found a few kits, even some that have reusable filters :) Anything in the 80gph range sould be good...right? any input/recommendations are appreciated. |
Again, no one can help you if you dont tell us what engine your talking about.

motor is a om617 3.0L turbo diesel :)
motor came from a 1985 Mercedes 300SD, going into an early toyota landcruiser...sooooo looking forward to driving this home :) manny |
As far as I know every diesel has a fuel/water separator and drain of some sort unless it has been modified and removed. Sometimes it's a buit in drain and other times it's a part of the filter, but ya you definitely need something.

Racor (Parker filtration) makes some nice filter/seperators.

any thoughts on a fram/Baldwin/caterpillar setup?
found a few references around these and really like the international availability, along with replacement costs :) a few links for your reading pleasure: Installing additional fuel filters, GDP w/ Cat 2 Micron, and a Fuel/Water Sep.... - Dodge Cummins Diesel Forum Dodge Cummins Diesel Forum - View Single Post - Engine-mounted Cat 2 mic/Water separator |
