    And to squeeze a little bit more filtration for you peso try a used hard drive magnet, They are super cheap if not free and damm strong.







    Every little bit helps, You can also toss on on the Trans pan and oil pan. You can't beat free or super cheap. Should be plenty of dead hard drive you can get your hands on.

    hi dvldoc, A few questions about Isuzu 4jg2-T filters.
    1) I have checked possible filters and Ryco z204 came out and Baldwin BD716. No fleetguards. Would you know if there are still other fleetguard filter that could work for the 4jg2?
    2) I might have to relocate the oil filter because it will get in the way of the front prop shaft. Can you recommend of a way to move it? I'm sure it would look like your remote bypass but with just 1 filter. Any ideas?
    Thanks in Advance

    Your numbers are off my friend. It's a Ryco Z402 and BD7160.
    The specs on your filter are this.



    Used Z402 cut open, Notice not a true bypass set up just two seperate filters. It does not have stacked disk or spiral wound media like a true bypass filter should. This is how OEM ones are also set up.



    Quality ones should be set up like this with spiral wound or stacked disk for true bypass filtration in a combo filter. Fleetguard have the stacked disk, Baldwins have the wound media.








    BD7160
    Thread: M26 x 1.5
    O.D.: 3 17/32 (89.7)
    Length: 4 15/16 (125.4)
    17psi bypass valve

    The Baldwin dealer should have these.


    The BD28 will also work.
    Thread: M26 x 1.5
    O.D.: 3 11/16 (93.7)
    Length: 5 3/8 (136.5)
    20psi bypass.
    You don't have to use the exact same filter as stock one slightly bigger or smaller has zero effect.

    The closest Fleetguard probably to big if you are having clearance issues.
    LF3564
    Largest OD 106 mm (4.173 in)
    Overall Height 136 mm (5.354 in)
    Thread Size M26 X 1.5-6H INT

    You can clearly see the Baldwin filter is much better made then the ryco, There rivets in the end cap and few holes are a good indication of a lower quaility filter.

    You would have to measure the stock filter or what you have now to see if you have space, you never know it could be larger than these.


    There are no oil filter relocation kits for the M26 thread. It's a very rare thread due to it's size. It's that big because you guys run a combo/bypass filter system on your vehicle.

    Look out for Fake Fleetguards even at the so called authorized dealers.

    They have a mix of real and fake.

    Things to look out for.

    Real fleetguards will never have a sticker as a label on them.

    Real will have country of origin stated as MADE IN USA or MADE IN FRANCE ect. Never product of USA.

    Real Fleetguards are sealed in plastic.

    They will never have yellow print for part numbers.

    Gasket will always be perfectly round never notched like the one pictured.

    Fakes will be lighter and of lower quality. Rust on a sealed unit is a sure sign it's a fake. They don't rust unless exposed to extreme conditions.

    REAL


    REAL.


    FAKE


    FAKE (Almost could fool anyone with this one the outside is well done) No country of origin. Just as bad as a Fram on the inside.



    Real ones are totally different.


    There are also fake Bosch, MANN, VIC, Toyota, FRAM (Why bother lol) And Nissan floating around there. Just be sure to look at what you by especially from some of these small shops and heck even the big shops that sell filters.

    Just remember fake automotive parts make up around 30% of the Asian market. China is the main culprit.

    i'd take the Fram anytime if the choice would be between Fram and fake fleetguard. Frams painted grip is ***y and more colorful too..hehe

    As a guide to fellow tsikoteers, those who had bought Baldwin & Fleetguard oil filters here in the philippines. Can you please post where you bought them and their respective addresses and contact nos. This thread would be pointless if people like me interested in buying better oil filtration can't find it, or if found be misled into buying fakes. A recurring and updating of trusted dealers will be highly appreciated. also prices of different part nos. will be of great help to those reading this thread.

    Also dvldoc i'd like to clarify this list of part number for the 4m40 engine

    Fleetguard LF3918
    Baldwin BD7028 & BD28

    Is the design of the above filters the same as the OEM filter, which you say has a unique design ("Dual By-pass" I think you said?) But the material used in filtering is of higher standard? Correct me if I'm wrong? Thanks

    Just bought a Bosch 306 filter. Much more designed for 4d56 engine but in the box it says ok for 4m40 so i got it. Just for P312. Will replace the Vic filter asap. and then I will open the Vic filter to see what's inside. I have run almost 2,700kms on the Vic for 3 months so I guess it worth to try it.

    The more the better, I like one on the bottom and a few on the sides of the filter. The amount of stuff caught should actually go down from oil change to oil change. If it does't it means your getting a lot of wear in your engine.

    thanks. I just have started to get all the magnet from all the defective hard disk. I can also put some in the trans pan and oil pan.

    Just make sure na all of those magnets will be the heavy duty type or high strength magnets. If you use the less strength magnets and it was accidentally taken/fall off then you have now a hefty chunk of ferrous materials now loose in your pans.
    Cons of having it all sticked to your pans is you have to open up your oil pans in periodic intervals just to check and clean those accumulated ferrous materials, you don't wan't it to be just being collected there in long periods of time waiting for it to be freed from those magnetic flux and a sudden release will overwhelm your oil filtration.

    it is best to put na lang in around the Oil Filter or stick to the Drain plug lang.

    If there will be some entrepraneural motorheads na magbenta dito nyan...I'll get two pcs.
