    Quick question here: Is the Fleetguard FF5160 (cross for MB 220900) inside-out flow or standard flow? Thanks

    Yes the FF5160 is inside outflow, The Baldwin is a much better filter, that Fleetguard is only 40 microns * 98.7% and 20 microns at 50%. The Baldwin is 15 microns at 98.7% and 5 microns * 5%. OEM is 10 microns * 50%.

    I would go with the BF7534.

    Just want to ask tsikoteers what you will choose between a WIX and a Fleetguard replacement for a BD28. Volmax said that they will have the BD28 by the end of April and now they are telling me they will have it by June, don't like to buy from them anymore. My concern for the FG is that the ones they are selling here seems to be inferior to the ones being sold in the US as seen in the previous posts. Wix on the other hand I think does not filter as well as FG and Baldwin. Just want to know your opinions.

    Well when shipping from overseas there can always be delays.

    But as far as the WIX goes, on this particular filter, yes they have a cross match that would work but the nominal rating is 30 microns which is not very good. The Baldwin is 12 microns. Normally WIX filters are very good but not for this particular application because.

    But this does not put them out of the picture, If you can find the 51675 it's 19 microns nominal, It is slightly larger than the BD28 equivilant. I know some 4M40's and 4D56's have that Aircon hose that can block a larger filter so you will have to check if you have clearance.

    51675
    Height: 5.981
    Outer Diameter Top: 4.282

    BD28
    O.D.: 3 11/16 (93.7)
    Length: 5 3/8 (136.5)

    If you do have the extra space you can also go with the BD7028.

    Goodluck on wix, went to superior motors last january and ordered filters for 4d56, they said they are going to call me when my order arrives, well, upto now, nothing. Forced me to get a case of bd28 from u.s, price is higher than that of volmax, but i know i am going to have them, rather than just wait for volmax stocks

    It seems like it is a case to case basis. Some OEM filters have good fuel filters but bad oil filters and vice versa.

    Volmax-p765 vs p880(still in sanfo). If i am going to have them shipped here, it's going to be p1100, so no choice but to have a relative bring them here maybe by 2s or 3s (if they are planning to travel for vacation).

    They might increase the price, When their shipment comes sabi ng volmax. Lalo na in demand na ang filter. I try to call the fleetguard sa new manila baka may LF3564 the same as Bd28.

    Yes the OEM has a better efficiency rating, Might check for Donaldson versions of that filter.

    and the OEM fuel filter is standard flow, right?? if it is, maybe i'll go OEM so as not to change also the priming pump.

    Same flow or it would not work, it's because it's a filter and fuel water separator.

    if you want that oil to lessen, you have to put catch can.. or if you want it to completely disappear you have to disconnect the PCV hose and let it vent the vapors into the atmosphere...
    miko, was able to find the culprit. it was a loose clamp on the turbo. tightened it already.


    had my oil change today on my 4m40 to Zic UP 10w40. coupled with Baldwin BD28. i got the last piece from Volmax early march.

    miko, first impression of the oil, mabaho. haha! the smell is unpleasant. but after using it for 350km straight yesterday, the engine seems to idle very smoothly. probably because of the viscosity. 10w40 vs 15w40(old oil). will try to observe pa in a couple of days.

    Sir, check ninyo din kung golden pa din ang oil color after 500kms lalo na with Baldwin BD28. Still got a golden oil color after 500kms with Fleetguard LF3564. Panalo talaga ang price at performance ng ZIC UP.

    actually checked it right after oil change. but it was a bit dark agad. probably cause the previous oil i use was really really dark when we drained it. but its ok since i know im using a good oil + filter combo. will drain the oil after probably 5-6000km and have it analyzed.

    Miko, can you PM me the contact of the company with used oil analysis? thanks!

    doy - sir, can you share your good experience with Zip UP?
