A few part numbers please?

Uses the same parts as in the 7J5104..... parts book.
The Cat number for the fuel filters is for a set of four...or a Wix #33825 individual.
Also the Wix oil filter is a #51165.

Check the oil filter housing for full flow conversion (Slotted hex top screw}
or original by-pass type with T-handle.

Right, that's good, I can cross reference those filter part numbers to Fram and Fleetgaurd numbers. I can get these locally without too much trouble and probably far cheaper that from Cat.

I've checked the filter housing on the machine and it has the hex top screw, so that would be the full flow conversion - does that part number for the oil filter still hold good?

Thanks again, Julian.

Not the same, is it the slotted hex head?
The single element full flow filter is a Wix #51161

It's a fairly deep hex head, not slotted and with no markings. Interestingly my 13/16th spanner fits it, a spanner that rarely comes out of the box since I gave up working on Boeings....

Maybe I'll just pull the filter out and hopefully it will be obvious what type is fitted? I'll wait a few days as we have a string of public holidays in the UK just now and all the stockists are closed.

Julian.

Yes, it would be best to check as there were a few intermediate units that had the hex head, no slot that were still by-pass type filters.

Just for interest I removed the old filter today, Cat # 5S 0484E which according to Cat is now IR0659. In stock at the local branch at about $10. together with the fuel filters(s)

Cheers Julian
