Description
When you're dealing with questionable fuel quality or moisture in your diesel tank, this fuel/water separator filter is your first line of defense against expensive injection system damage. Modern Ford diesels run at extremely high pressures with tight tolerances, making them sensitive to even small amounts of water or debris. This Baldwin BF1204 separates water from fuel and traps contaminants before they can reach your injection pump and injectors.
What You're Getting
- Integral post seal design that prevents air leaks and ensures reliable operation
- Built-in sensor port with 1/2-20 thread for water-in-fuel warning systems
- Inside-out flow direction that maximizes filtration efficiency and filter life
- Baldwin quality construction that handles the pressure cycles and vibration of diesel operation
- Compact 6 1/16 inch length fits in tight engine compartments without modification
Built for Real Farm Work
This filter is specifically designed for Ford diesel engines, whether you're running an older Ford tractor for general farm work, hay operations, or field cultivation. The 1-14 thread size and 3 11/16 inch outer diameter make it a direct replacement for your original equipment filter, so you can get back to work quickly.
Made to Last
Baldwin has been protecting engines for decades, and this filter uses quality media that captures water and particles while maintaining proper fuel flow. The robust housing withstands the temperature swings and constant vibration that come with farm equipment operation, giving you reliable performance season after season.
Installation Notes
This is a direct spin-on replacement that takes just minutes to change. Fill the new filter with clean diesel fuel before installation to minimize air in the system, and hand-tighten until the gasket contacts the mounting surface, then turn an additional three-quarters turn. Don't forget to drain any accumulated water from the sensor port regularly, especially during wet seasons when condensation is more likely.
