Does it have a filter element in it or is it a centrifuge type filter? Is it a push fuel thru or pull fuel thru filter (suck fuel thru it or push fuel thru it) or does it matter? _________________________ If you believe you can't YOUR RIGHT; But equally so.... if you believe you can, YOUR RIGHT as well. |

One before add on filter and one before OEM filter.dttk44@bellsouth.net Cool weather mixes starting spring 2009. 100% vo to 65*. 5% K1 to 55*. 10% K1 to 45*. 20% K1 to 35*. 30% K1 to 10*. |

Larry,
Love the photos, But my toenails have grown 1/2 inche while I waited for them to download. If you restrict the original size to 640*480 they look nearly as good and come down the wire much faster. regards dva |

Here is a PDF file on available elements on the filter. It was originally made for heavy duty truck engines as a oil filter.
You can pay 250.00 and up or buy off ebay new 75.00 or I recently found one at a garage sale for 30.00 it is designed as a full flo oil filter pressure in I don't see why it couldn't be used as a gravity feed or ?? I have ran approximately 150 gal through cold and still performing fine after settling for 3 days still no signs of any sediment of any kind in cubees or in sample bottle which is collected from every batch to check performance of filter. I blend mine with 20 % diesel and cetane boost as suggested on bottle. I seem to start easier and have more power also. Mileage in my F250 1987 with 6.9 with banks turbo and gearvenders over drive is 19 - 20 mpg empty and 15 - 16 pulling double axle trailer loaded with abt 4000 lbs. avg. No heat of any kind used have started at 35 degrees only cycled glow plugs twice. Larry |

There's no link to a PDF file in the post. _________________________ If you believe you can't YOUR RIGHT; But equally so.... if you believe you can, YOUR RIGHT as well. |

That large metal cannister with the two lines on the bottom is a Luberfiner. You see them on the side of large trucks all the time. It is not a full flow filter but rather a bypass filter. It takes a large metal encased element that is replaced by loosening the clamp band that is about a third of the way down from the top. Any truck repair place will know what you are asking for if you say by-pass filter element.

A very strange thing happened - I found a Luber-Finer 750C filter housing along the side of the road!! It appears to have been thrown away as trash. After a few days research I found a NAPA equivelant filter (NAPA Gold 1750) that only costs $13 (list price is $23, about half the cost of a relatively small Racor element), and they're HUGE. They're also made from (ready to laugh?) paper pulp and wood chips, "auger filled". This means they'll burn easily and cleanly, probably.
Some specs: 100psi operating pressure, 60 psi pressure drop when clogged to maximum spec (but rated to 75 psi, and even 100psi pressure drop), better than 99% efficiency in a complicated measureuemt: it will catch better than 50% of 5-micron particles and better than 75% of 10-micron particles with 99 percent efficiency in a single pass. That's about the same as a Goldenrod, but bigger, and designed to capture 260 grams of particles. This makes it sound liike a perfect polishing filter for SVO or Biodiesel. The thing holds 3.5 gallons! Now I just need to figure out where I'm going to use it. Cheers, JohnO |
