Fuel filters

[raggdoll]

Do these Amazon fuel filters look ok to use?

 

[KKBB]

I wouldn't use those. It appears they aren't OEM. I sure wouldn't cheap out on filtration. I would go to genos garage and buy your filters from them. They are great to deal with and it will be the right stuff...not Chinese knock off crap.

 

[Timsdually]

Me either.
OEM filter for me.
If that cheap filter goes bye-bye, so can your engine.

I had the dealership mechanic school me on this on my previous Cummins.
If my cheap filter wrecks my engine, cheap filter company will pay for a new filter.

If an OEM Ram filter wrecks it, Mopar is on the hook.

Anyone have part #'s for good quality filters?

HPFP and fuel injectors are on the expensive side to go cheap on the fuel filters.
Front: Fleetguard FS53000 / Cummins 5260529
The rear fuel filter also is used in the DT body EcoDiesel: Mopar 68436631AA

Would never try to skimp on fuel filter price. Go oem or equivalent there us too much crap fuel i would not want to risk anything especially over $50.

So there is no aftermarket fuel filter for the rear?

Don't believe there is, maybe someone will chime in. I double checked on a different forum for the EcoDiesel and only the Mopar one is listed.

I have been looking for many weeks and have yet to find one

I use these Diesly filters. OEM filters are all back ordered and these are pretty good.

Amazon.com

I for one wouldn't use some cheap @ss fuel filter on my truck and filters can be found some time it may take a day or two to find them, my self I just got mine off Amazon last week and had both fuel filters in less then 5 days...

i just made an appointment at my local stealership, they wanted $349 to change both fuel filters. Does that sound right
i ordered both filters for #59.00 at Amazon, Mopar filters. They quoted $89.00 for labor. If it was under 200 dollars I would have let the stealership done it. I'm having some recall items looked at. mainly the water pump.

I can almost bet those 2 filters from Amazon for $59.00 are made in China, I would not trust them in my CTD, if you don't want to buy Mopar/Fleetguard 3 micron filter then use Baldwin #PF46108 & BF46031 they are 4 micron rated...

The consensus is no. Use only Cummins or Fleetguard unless you know for a fact that some other after market company exceeds the filtering capacity of the two brands above. Do not use cheaper imitation filters.
