opinions on Filters?
Which do you feel is best and why? I have conflicting opinions on filters, asked 3 different mechanics at different shops and keep getting 3 different opinions. Would like to hear some opinions form the guys using them as to which they feel is best and why. Also found a vary good article on Turbodieselregister about oils. http://www.turbodieselregister.com/a...l-Information/

dontaldson endurance/endurance plus are the best right now.
Better flow, filtration, with synthetic media. Their "plus" line also slowly replenishes your TBN. |
How are the Donaldson prices compared to Baldwin or Fleet guard or Wix?
|
If you run a Cat engine, use their filters. Although they are more expensive, remember the old saying, you get what you pay for.
|
I don't know, but the filters for my engine are regularly about $10 bux each(2 full flows) and the endurance were $17 each.

We have a cummins N14plus and a Cat 3116 we've been running Baldwin filters but a Mechanic friend of mine suggested Wix and said there better and cheaper in cost?? I dont know which way to turn.
