FASS filtration deception.

Yes this is the word. I have one on order myself.

The BF1212 is rated at 100% free water removal and 93% emulsified removal at 90 GPH

I purchase the BF1212 locally for about $7... Just go to a big-rig shop, its a common filter.

Ok guys. I'm running stock fuel filter set-up but getting fleetguards from Genos. Is this the best filter for the stock set-up. If not what is. What is emulsified and such.

The Fleetguard version of the Baldwin BF1212 is FS1212. The Fleetguard FS1000, or shorter version FS1001 filters finer as it is used on the electronic N14 engines. I just don't remember the ratings. A call to FLG @ 1-800-22-FILTER would tell us. A FS1240B has a bowl on the bottom of it as well, similar to the one in post 11. Shadrach

That one only has a 30 gph flow rate

carl07230,

Emulsified means mixed in. Using the Fleetguard OEM filters from Genos is the fine. We are talking about the filters that are supplied with the AirDog and FASS systems not being as good as the stock filtration.

does the baldwin bf1212w spin right on to the FASS? or do you need to change out the center post?

After reading this i am not sure what to do. I was thinking about using my factory fuel housing with a factory fuel filter behind the fass system. the housing i have i did drill and tap the holes to take a larger fitting and NTP so i can use anything but never put it on. Should i put it on with a factor filter. In theroy i should never have to change the filter as i run a 3 micron on my fass system and the factory is 7 micron.



Thing i would like about having it back on is the wif sensor hooked back up.



Things i would not like is the engine heating the fuel...



also after reading it looks as if the BF1212 will fit the fass 150 series. is this correct?





thanks

Baldwin PF7977 is the best for the OE canister.

The Baldwin BF1212 has a higher f/w separation rating than the FS1212, the FS1212 is a hair better at filtration. . but the point in this filter is f/w sep. The next filter inline is the final one.



I have spent hours on ratings, run the BF1212. Its the best fit for the purpose and application. The FS1000 is has similar f/w sep ratings to the BF1212, but is a finer filter and will plug sooner, the finer filtering isn't needed on the inital filter. I run the BF1212 and was able to get 30K miles from my filters with a . 5psi drop, 20um absolute for an initial filter is perfect IMHO.

Haha. . have you read any of this thread?

Yea i have read it and am a bit confused. to me it sounds like the FS1023 is the same as the ws1001. but i am not exactly sure. my other questions was will that filter fit on the fass 150 series pump or will i need to buy some sort of housing to get it in my system... .



I am just a fellow TDR member trying to do the best for my truck... .

The silence from FASS on this issue is deafening... I would like to see them chime in and comment on this.

Yes, the WS1001 is the FS1023. All of the specs listed are FS1023, so you can see at the top of the thread the specs for your filter.

Yes, it is a direct replacement.

 

[JohnBoy5]

cool thanks for all the help!

 

[JCyrbok]

any difference between the BF1212W and the BF1212 other than color and price?

BF1212W is white and is listing at 25. 00 and the BF1212 is red and lists at 14. 50 at the parts place I use.
