Do a search using:

Baldwin PF7977

as your search values in the 3rd generation threads. You'll find all kinds of information.

Just bought a case each of BT7349 (oil) and PF7977 (fuel); 12 to the case; $55.78 and $118.36 respectively, plus about $15 UPS ground. Unit prices (w/o shipping) are $4.65 and $9.86. And it ain't gonna get any cheaper! After everbody's got the ammo, the next shortage is gonna be filters. (or maybe toilet paper!) Mark my words and get a case now!

I run Hastings #LF608. Hastings and Baldwin are the same company. The Hastings brand is sold at auto supply houses as well as truck shops in my area, maybe you can find one locally. I run Hastings/Baldwin on our fleet exclusively.

Maybe this will help, http://www.hastingsfilters.com/
