Source for diesel inline fuel filter

[Mighty Dodge]

Anybody know of a good inline fuel filter. I'm re-powering a garden tractor with a Lombardini diesel. There isn't room for a large filter and was hoping to use an inline suitable for diesel. The original Lombardini specs call for a 5 micron filter.

Thanx

What size hose are you running? I can look one up for you in a Fleetguard or Donaldson catalog but need to know what size hose you are running.

Hi Diesel,

The hose is 1/4 inch.

Thanx!

A Fleetguard FF5480 is a fuel filter for a ONAN engine and has a .26 inch inlet and outlet.

If you want a metal housed filter try a Fleetguard FF5066 (Fram G1), it is a true 1/4 inch inlet/outlet filter. This is probably the best for your application as it is intended for diesel engines and is a factory filter on BOBCAT'S with WISCONSIN, KOHLER, ONAN and DEUTZ AG diesel engines.

Tried a G1, it won't flow enough, must need a fuel pump. I need something for gravity feed. I'll keep searching.
