Description
When you're relying on your diesel pickup to haul equipment to the farm or pull a heavy trailer, water and contaminants in your fuel can shut you down fast. The 5.9L Cummins in those early '90s Dodge trucks is a workhorse engine, but it needs clean fuel to keep delivering the power and reliability you count on. This Baldwin fuel/water separator filter keeps your injection system happy by catching water and debris before they can cause expensive problems.
What You're Getting
- Two-stage filtration that separates water and captures fine particles in one unit
- Integral post seal design prevents fuel leaks and ensures proper mounting
- Sensor port with 1 1/4-10 threads for factory water-in-fuel warning system
- M16 x 1.5 thread size for direct bolt-on replacement
- Compact 4 11/16 inch length fits in tight engine compartments
Built for Diesel Reliability
This filter was designed specifically for the 1989-93 Dodge pickup trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins diesel engine. Those trucks see everything from daily farm duties to long highway hauls, and this filter handles both. The water separation feature is especially important if you're dealing with fuel that's been sitting in storage tanks or if you're working in humid conditions where condensation can be a problem.
Made to Last
Baldwin has been protecting diesel engines for decades, and this filter uses the same quality construction you'd expect from OEM parts. The filter media captures particles down to microscopic levels while the water separation chamber collects and holds moisture until you can drain it out. The housing is built to handle engine vibration and temperature cycles without cracking or leaking.
Installation Notes
This is a direct replacement that threads right into your existing fuel system. Make sure to drain any water from the separator bowl before removing the old filter, and prime the new filter with clean diesel fuel before starting the engine. The sensor port connects to your dash warning light, so you'll know when it's time to drain water or change the filter.
