    It pays to shop around. I got on the Baldwin website and cranked in my zip code, found the closest dealer and got a pleasant surprise. The B1441 filter was $7.36 and the BF7635 (megafilter) was $32.25. No shipping, no sales tax (NH). Give it a try.

    Can you tell me more about the Mega filter? I'm already using the B1441, and wasn't aware there was another Baldwin we could use.
    Thanks,

    rtquig,

    The BF7635 is a 2-micron fuel filter (AKA the JK MegaFilter). [img]smile.gif[/img]

    Racor recommends against using a second 2 micron filter.

    I have yet to get a reason why. Has anybody heard the reason dorectly from Racor?

    Yes I am using one post OEM with no problems so far. I'm hoping the OEM removes enough to leave the leftovers for the second larger filter.

    Thanks Jbplock.
    At first I thought it was a larger oil filter.

    hoot.......

    We can only surmise that if Racor gave it's
    blessing for a 2 micron post OEM filter, that would
    imply that their OEM filter was not adequately
    filtering to 2 micron as claimed. That is my
    quess.

    Adding secondary 2 micron absolute filtration cannot
    do any harm to our fuel systems.
