Would you use this filter?

The office gets those for about 30 bucks. So I wouldn’t pay 90 for it. However, I would not hesitate using that filter. It will do the job fine.

 

10-4 I didn’t see the tears. Just looked like the media was squished. My eyes are getting older.

 

I wouldn't use it if it's torn either. Quick search on Amazon 35 bucks

 

Amazon.com : fleetguard fs19915 fuel water separator
Genuine Fleetguard - $51 and free shipping. $32 ea. with free shipping over $35, so order 2.
Your welcome.
The one for $31.89 says Made In China and does not say Fleetguard but has FS19915 so it is a fake. The one for $51 looks legit.

 

The ones we get say fleet guard , but we buy multiple cases at a time. Same with lube, fuel, and reefer filters. A little cheaper that way. Unfortunately the savings on buying a drum of oil is negligible.

 

No , I would not use it. Injectors and fuel pumps are expensive……both to diagnose and to replace.

Local dealers, even Cummins distributors should get you that filter for less than 90 bucks, and undamaged at that.
