I need help locating a fuel filter base to mount on a gravity fed diesel tank. I'm putting a Baldwin water seperator, and Donaldson 2 Mic filter on it. The outlet of the tank has a 1 1/4" ball valve...so I'm looking for at least a 1" in/out base, pipe threads, and the stud for the filter is 1"-14 pitch. Any suggestions would be awesome. Found a Baldwin online, but it has a 12 pitch, problem is I already have a ton of filters for a 14 pitch. Thanks!

 

use a bushing to neck it down to fit wix 24770 base

 

I've been using Goldenrod brand for over 40 years.
They have all kinds of configurations and micron sizes.

This is for gravity fed diesel tank. If I neck it down that small, it would take forever to fill equipment. I've seen a wix 1" in/out...24001. But the pitch is 12..I need 14, there some sort of thread adapter?

I've used goldenrod and it doesn't remove enough water. That's the main reason for putting better filters on it.

 

It took about 15 minutes to fill the 200 gallon tank on my JD combine with a 1" Goldenrod filter and 1" fill hose from 12' high gravity tank.
Still too slow though till I hooked the tank up to my air line with a 5 psi regulator and two 10 psi safety blow-off valves just in case.
Now I'm doing about 50 gpm plus it allows using an auto shutoff fill nozzle.
With just gravity auto shut-offs don't work.

 

..........always the thinker ! how are ya ?
