FUEL FILTERS

[Tim B]

I just received 2 fuel filters from DIS, PN 50143. They advertise that the filter stocked for the Duramax is a Racor filter but the ones I received are made by Parker Hannifin Corp. and do not have the word Racor anywhere on them. I really thought I was going to get the Racor ones.
I haven't yet replaced the original filter so these are the first ones I've bought. Did I get ripped off here ? Did Racor get bought out and their name has changed ? Or are these filters equivalent to the OEM and Racor ?


Thanks in advance.

Racor has been owned by Parker for a long time. Same difference.

Have used them Both, I change mine every 10K with oil,
No problem. I have a couple of Racors and a couple of Parkers

My dealer said they cost $92. at the counter so I ordered 5 from DIS in TX. for $16.31 each, even though they are back ordered for a week. If they are identical to the dealer's why does the dealer charge $92? Maybe I should buy 50 of them and sell them to the dealer for $32. each.

Parker has owned Racor for a while now. But you will see that they are one of the same. We have them in stock.

Holy S?/' Batman $92.00 for a fuel filter. And
then they wonder why people go elsewhere for service. I aso got mine from D.I.S. 5 pack $16.31 each. :eek:

Only in Canada you say $110 each,
Or DIS 5 for $81.55US now thats a good buy.

good luck
