Where to get FASS filters on Sat in SF Bay Area?

Anyone have an idea? I had a moment and pulled the wrong filter when installing my 2-micron Racor filter, and now I cannot find anyone open today that has anyting in stock. Not even Napa.



Thanks.

Too late, but any place that handles wix or Napa is the only potentials... I have also seen them at the truckstops sometimes...



The wix 51202 and napa 1202 would be the most likely...



Also, the Baldwin BT8509-MPG if you can find a dealer...

Thanks for the advice.



After endless phone calls and being placed on hold, someone at a truck repair facility was able to cross-reference the Fleetguard number to a Baldwin number, which was then cross-referenced to a Wix number for me. Armed with that info, I started calling Napa stores again.



Out of all the Napa stores in the Bay Area, one store had a Wix 51724, which is a 10 micron hydraulic filter. I guess it doesn't matter as I just installed a 2-micron Racor in front of it.



Cool, I get to drive my truck the rest of the weekend!

The FASS filters are hydraulic filters.

I made a pretty exhaustive search on FASS filter, that thread is located:

This shows about every "common" filter that will cross to the FASS...
