I bought 3 since I installed the setup a few years ago and now need to buy a few more. Anyone have a good site for a good price on these or a comparable good quality replacement?

Remember....non charged

Thanks

 

Here is a list, I believe this list contains all NON-charged filters.

Fleetguard WF-2077
Baldwin B5089 (shorter version)
Baldwin B5134
John Deere RE11992
Caterpillar 9Y4528
Cummins 3300721
Wix 24070
NAPA 4070
AC-Delco WF-108
Fram PR3383
Donaldson P554685
Alliance (Freightliner) WF2077

 

Also, I just found this one that bismic is using now that his system is plugging less, and is shorter and less expensive.

Baldwin B5089

 

Nice...thank you guys

I got very lucky.....I never found major pluggage material in my first two. I might go to the shorter

 

I just picked some up from Grainger. Lists at $10.09.

 

Napa's shorter filter is a 4069. Gives you another inch or so if you need it.

 

Fleetguard also offers a shorter coolant filter, I don't know the number, but I have seen them.

 

No number no good! LOL

 

HaHa,I know I use the larger of the two or I would have the number. The Deere filter(RE11992) is used on a couple of other engines of mine, so out of convienence they are always sitting on the shelf.

 

can you order these off the net from grainger. Iv been using napa 4070 at 15.00 a pop
thanks

 

This isn't the best price I've seen, but it's convenient and the shipping is free.

Amazon.com: Baldwin B5134 Coolant Spin-On Filter without Chemicals: Automotive

 

They provide the option to do so, however the shipping may not make it worthwhile.

Try to see if you have one near you. They will ship to store for no charge.

I've also found that they may give discounts based on your employer. Never hurts to ask.

 

Could someone let me know what a "non charged" filter is.
Thank you.

 

Charged filters have an additive in them. See below.

Start at page 94, then you will understand what is in a charged filter.

 

A "charged" filter is one with a dissolving block of Supplemental Cooling Additive" (SCA) in it. It is how the cooling system was (and maybe still is) maintained on big diesel engines that don't use pre-charged coolant (like Ford Gold or Cat EC-1 rated). SCA's help prevent some of the issues plain ol' antifreeze has in a diesel environment, like cavitation and corrosion, etc.

A "non charged" filter isn't charged. SCA's would be bad in a coolant that is already designed with them built in, like the Ford Gold or Cat EC-1 rated coolants that we should be using.
