dodge-diesel : Message: Re: Oil Filter

I buy all my filters from the Cummins dealer in town. All they sell,
and recommend, is Fleetguard. I worked for a Case equiptment dealer,
which ran Cummins B series engines for years, and thats what they used
as well. I can never remember seeing a problem due to a bad filter.

I purchased a Fram filter for my 04 5.9 but it the end of it is round so you cannot use a filter cap wrench on it. Maybe there is another type cap wrench. I...	Smith, Lee Roy rustangfb	Jun 16, 2008 12:17 pm
