Cummins QSC 500 (44 DA, 2006)
I plan to store spare set of Racor filters on board, so I consulted the Cummins Manual for correct part number.......something I thought would be straight forward. Went to local Cummins shop to purchase; part number in manual is for entire water-separating unit, not the drop in filter. When I purchased the boat last fall, I had the local diesel shop service engines and replace filters. The filter part number they installed: Racor 2040N (Cummins Manual states "1000MA"); On engine filter: FF5488 (agrees to Cummins Manual). I talked with Seaboard Marine, they suggested Racor 2020N-10. In the Manual, there is no Fleetguard part number listed. I thought this would be a simple task. Would appreciate input from others as to what Racor should be used on the Cummins QSC500 8.3L. Also, is there an authoritative reference source for locating correct filters. Thanks.
