Filter Numbers
Well, since the search function isn't working for me right now I guess I'll post a new multi-part question for the gurus.
1) I'm looking for filter part numbers for the following Fleetguard filters
OIL - STANDARD SIZE & LARGE SIZE (longer version)
FUEL - STANDARD STYLE without drain
2) Any suggestions on where to buy Fleetguard filters? None of my local stores seem to sell them
3) Are Baldwin brand filters any good? If so, anybody got part numbers for their oil filters (both standard & large) and fuel filters
4) Are Purolator brand filters any good? If so, anybody got part numbers for their oil filters (both standard & large) and fuel filters
5) Are WIX brand filters any good? I know I can get them at one of my local parts stores, and I've always thought they were pretty good - just a bit spendy.
6) Lastly, are there any OTHER brands that are recommended that are easier to find and/or less expensive?

You can get the Motocraft ones at Wal-Mart for a fair price. I don't know who builds them, but they seem well made. The Napa filters are made by Wix and are good quality. They do seem to have gone up in price lately though.

I can get Fleetguard filters at Ford, Fleetpride and NAPA here, we have a NAPA truck center.
The IDI long filter is LF3630.
Cummins owns Fleetpride, so you should probably be able to get it at a Cummins dealer also.
That is the only oil filter I ever run.
Baldwin and Wix are both good products as well.
I run a Purolator air and fuel filter, A44853 is the air filter for my ATS turbo, F54692 is the fuel filter for the 7.3 style with the water seperator that screws on the bottom.

At least it does now that I plugged the drain hose with a bolt to keep it from sucking air

Mine started sucking air in around the top, I switched to the 7.3 style filter with the drain in the bottom, only downside is the cartridge is 19.95 each instead of 8 dollars.
