Four FRAM filters #P1146 are taking up space on one of the work
benches.

If you can use them they are yours for the shipping charges. That's

assuming they are worth the shipping charges.

Larry, Glad to see you are up and rolling again

I will put that address in my database for the future thanks for the

info it is appreciated

I was already rudely corrected that there are cheaper places on the

net to buy filters

I bought mine by the case simple reasons you always need another one

and if you clog one there is usally more clog to follow

Have a great day



Stephen 77fc35 now with all the led clearance and signal lights for

87-89 fc thanks robert

Hi Larry,

The 2040SM is a 2 micron Racor filter.

We use a 10 micron Racor filter, The primary Cat filter is a 2 micron.
I think the 10 micron in blue 2040TM (this is from memory) So, you
may want to check this out. The 2 micron will clog up faster.
You can also try to drain some fuel from the Racor and the fuel tank
occationally. Just keep driving and changing filters, this should
clear things up.

Rob,

SWBBR is progressing well. It will be great to meet up with all the
'Bird owners. Looks like there will be more than 40 'Birds attending.
The planned participation is near 60 units, 'Birds and SOBs.

Did you try the CDs I sent?

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the info... I just ordered what was in there... The one that clogged
is the brown top, thats why I ordered them and replaced it on the road with the
same one... I will look into getting the 10 micron also...
I noticed on top of the filter when I changed it, there was a little knock out
for an emergency, will this do anything???
TIA

Hi Larry,



The 2040SM is a 2 micron Racor filter.



We use a 10 micron Racor filter, The primary Cat filter is a 2 micron.

I think the 10 micron in blue 2040TM (this is from memory) So, you

may want to check this out. The 2 micron will clog up faster.

You can also try to drain some fuel from the Racor and the fuel tank

occationally. Just keep driving and changing filters, this should

clear things up.

Larry,

Thanks, I learned something new today.

I never noticed the emergency knock out plug before, I guess this by-
passes the filter, when you are down on the side of the road. Hopeing
the primary filter will do its' job and not clog until you are in a
safe place. This may not be a good idea.?.?

I have paid from about $8.00 for a Racor filter to the most recent
$13.99 at West Marine. (I wanted another spare for a trip).
At Napa it is a surprize when you open the box, it could be Racor,
Wix, or a no name brand. Sometimes the Micron number is not known
or listed in the parts book, But the price is always listed.?.?.?.
The 13.99 filter from West Marine, states "Genuine Racor Parker",
It is Blue and lists the 10 micron number, and it has the emergency
knockout plug. My other spares do not have this knock-out plug.

Bill Just a little NORTH of your home town. We are getting a little
snow today. Just a dusting. Hope the roads are dry as we are leaving Thursday
morning. Stopping in Nashville. Then on to FL. Where are you at????

Larry,

Thanks, I learned something new today.

I never noticed the emergency knock out plug before, I guess this by-
passes the filter, when you are down on the side of the road. Hopeing
the primary filter will do its' job and not clog until you are in a
safe place. This may not be a good idea.?.?

I have paid from about $8.00 for a Racor filter to the most recent
$13.99 at West Marine. (I wanted another spare for a trip).
At Napa it is a surprize when you open the box, it could be Racor,
Wix, or a no name brand. Sometimes the Micron number is not known
or listed in the parts book, But the price is always listed.?.?.?o
The 13.99 filter from West Marine, states "Genuine Racor Parker",
It is Blue and lists the 10 micron number, and it has the emergency
knockout plug. My other spares do not have this knock-out plug.

Don,

Snow !! You waited too long, you're late. Haha.

Titusville near the Space Center. Call, if you are near exit 215.
No Birds allowed on the launch pad.

Since the subject of filters has come up, I would like to add some
fuel to that fire.
Not all filters are of the same quality.
In a past job, I had the opportunity to purchase several different
brands of the same part number filter, and one of the salesmen said
to cut them open(new) and compare. You would very surprised at the
difference in manufacture. I now buy, no let me rephrase that, I now
don't buy certain brand name filters, as their quality leaves alot to
be desired.
Many years ago, I had to go to court because a certain oil filter
did not do it's job on a vehicle that was under warranty(the owner
changed his own oil), and the engine locked up. The oil was still clean
but the filter was dry. Meaning nothing passed through it.

Steve, in your opinion, which filters would be at the top of your list without naming the bottom of the list?
