2 the same

z115 or equivalent

10.5 liters is the average , some peoples take 9.5 others 11 , just fill it to thye full mark , run it , then recheck the level

 

Thanks for the reply mate.

Thats a lot of oil eh.

The oil filters that are on there now are branded Purolator L30257.

Thanks again.

 

I use genuine Nissan filters. They are not much different in price to the aftermarket versions. Though I must say these are the only items I have bought from Nissan without having to leave a couple liters of my blood to pay for.

 

Yeah i run the nissan ones too... i bought a massive box of them ages ago so im slowly getting through them all.

 

Same here, 2 the same for early TD42's. About $10 each from Nissan for the Nissan brand ones. Not made by Nissan anyway lol.
Yep mine takes about 11lts including filters.

 

OK thanks guys. Good to know.

Thanks for the replies.

 

Unless you can read the filter numbers on it, you probably won't know if they are two the same or if one is a fullflow and the other a bypass filter. I have a 1991 which has two different filters and a 92 which has two of the same.

 

The numbers are on the ends so can read them no probs.

Both have the same numbers.

That what I was worried about though Canuck. Puting 2 the same on when they should be different.

 

Laith i use two the same,Fleetgard no.LF3314 much better filtration i was even told by a nissan man in service dept.From memory about$11.00 oddd each.
cheers honest

Impossible to put two of the same on. The thread size (and pitch I believe) is different.

So do I Fleetguard = great protection and value for money!

 

so what sort of place sells the fleetguard filters? Repco?

 

The correct Fleetguard part no is LF3659 for the early TD42 and not LF3314 fyi. Its been discussed to death, just look at the bottom of this page as a starter.

So what year do you class as early? mine is 91 and i'm using 2 x LF3314's.

 

you can also run 2x Z9's on a TD42 without any problems and they are a cheep filter aswell.

Yes that's an interesting one, the Fleetguard cat says LF3659 however if you cross ryco number Z115 in the Fleetguard system if goes to LF3314. The LF3314 is a fair bit cheaper to me.

 

what does LF3659 convert to ryco ?

Z170

 

Exactly. Only ever convert once from the OEM part no to the aftermarket makers catalogue. Never cross reference within aftermaket part numbers - it doesnt work !

The TD42 is a tuff old dog and will work with many filters. But the fact is that the OEM part No 43G00 translates to Fleetguard LF3659 and nothing else in the Fleetguard line up. So if you want to fit a filter that meets the specs of the original, you only have one choice in Fleetguard - LF3659. Fit something else and you are moving into the unknown, yes it'll work, but how do you know its th best or running at its optimum ? Mate says so, such and such says so on the web, he's done 500kkm on his with no probs ? Umm, I prefer to use the minds of Nissan and Fleetguard, at least they warranty their decisions and do know what they are talking about. No BS !

 

From RYCO tech dept:
Z115 is simply a Z9 without the built in pressure relief valve, interchangeable.
Been using Z9's for years on L26 no probs. Saved heaps.

 

tom, whats the difference between the two fleetgaurd filters?
and when does "early" stop for the td42?
ive got a 97 ute, and my mate works for cummins, got me 6 LF3314 for $34.80.
that was what the computer told him should be in my car, can you shed some light for me?

cheers, andy

 

Have you tried looking at the Fleetguard web site ?

I don't know for your engine. I have only researched it for my na 1993 TD. I did note there was different filters between the turbo and na versions. Perhaps that is part of the confusion ?

Confusion reigns - its a good job that the TD42 is a tough old nail !

 

I will not be using LF3314 any more as it has a flow rating of only 21LPM not 40LPM like that the Z115

 

what does the pump flow though?
