Any reason on Donaldson over the fleetguard

And coincidentally I run Donaldson and Baldwin filter setup and normally buy all my filters through Amazon

[dripley]

@AH64ID pointed me towards the Donaldson 3 or 4 years ago. I have a lot of trust in what he says about filters. I never compared the two.

Interesting oil and fuel filter brands seem to be less cut and dry then say s&b or afe air filters

32 psi is ax I see. Still running the oe HX. It does have a Banks exhaust housing and waste gate actuator. The front half is the oe part.

Ya when I put my s300 on I started noticing deforming of the filter media that was clean I took it off and have been running s&b 

[Mopar1973Man]

Napa Gold Oil filter and either Napa oil 15w-40 or Chevron Delo 15w-40.

The Donaldson DBL7349 has better filtration and higher flow ratings than the Fleetgurad. 

 

The DBL 7349 is 100% at 20µ, 98.7% at 15µ, and 59.97% at 7µ.

 

The Fleetguard LF16035 is 100% at 30µ. 

 

The Amsoil EaO80 and DBL7349 have the same media. I run the Donaldson because it's cheaper. 

 

I have heard that Fleetguard has a NanoNet oil filter in the works, so I'll be curious to see how much better it is than the LF 16035.

Best thing to do is ask a high mileage guy what he's running of oil and filters. Because if he made 500k, 750k or 1 million miles its a good choice of oil and filters. I'm coming up on 400k miles pretty quick. I know @dripley is nearly to 500k miles. Oh speaking of which make sure when the head comes off to snap a photo of the cylinders. I'm curious.

So am I. Since putting my old RV's back in and getting the MAP sensor replaced it is running with plenty of power. I have been avoiding a full WOT run until the HG is replaced. Might throw in a new set or just have these rebuilt when the head goes back on. One of the 2.

 

Almost to 465k at the moment.

Napa Gold/Wix filters and whatever 15/40 is on sale. Currently using Travelers from Tractor Supply, $7.00 a gallon in 5 gallon buckets. I have 7 diesel powered vehicles, they all get the same stuff.

[Rotax3006]

Usually I use a Wix in some form, either Napa or carquest and Rotella 15/40.  Although I currently have a K&N from walmart on there.

What about Marine bhaf, aren't they the ones have steel Mash inside. I'm a bit nervous myself now, with 7x10 and 62/67/12, I may be pretty close to pushing limits off bhaf. Maybe a chunk of PVC or corrugated/ perforated tile inside the filter will prevent it from collapsing.
