Been beating the TMs real good for about an hour looking for an answer to this question:
What are the part numbers, or replacements (viton o-rings, NAPA parts, etc) for the GASKETS for the fuel filter cartridge housing?
In the engine manual ARMY TM
9-2815-253-24, page 3-26, there‘s a blow-up of the filter unit, and the instructions basically say replace the gaskets - all number 3. One might assume this all SHOULD come with the filter. I don‘t assume.
With what?
Unit is
Lister Petter Fuel Filter Assy 284359 but their site isn‘t any better at figuring this one out.
Of course, I could - did - use the google-powered forum search engine for this site and am, as usual, getting nowhere with it.
Should be a simple answer, easily found, right there in the engine manual, or operator manual, or lube order
.
Throw me a bone, someone.
I reassembled mine after changing the cartridge, put a new water separator filter on, bled the air out, engine fired right up.
I used/reused gaskets as I couldn‘t find anything to the contrary. DID use new gasket for bowl-housing that came with the filter element and a viton o-ring at the bottom. Engine runs GREAT, but the water separator is peeing fuel and I think maybe the secondary filter is too.
Spent about two hours pulling batteries, hauling genset out onto driveway from garage where I‘ve been working on it (pain, SS screws, bolts, soundproofing, cleaning out the fuel tank), and with some judicious use of degreaser and a garden hose was able to wash out all the fuel that sprayed all over.
Did learn that, like the time a pilot threw a match into a bucket full of JP-5 once just to show me how NONflammable the stuff was, #2 ULSD isn‘t that flammable either apparently. But I already knew that from all the leaking that was coming from the injector return lines I replaced first day I had the set.
So help?
Thanks.
