LGS2000311 FF5470 Spin-On Diesel Fuel Filter LGS2000311 fuel filter is a high-quality spin-on aftermarket replacement element cross-referenced to Fleetguard FF5470, specially designed for Cummins ISDe series medium-duty diesel engines widely used on commercial trucks, city buses and light construction machinery. Adopting multi-layer reinforced resin-impregnated cellulose filter media, this filter efficiently traps fine rust, dust, sludge, carbon residue and colloidal contaminants in diesel fuel. It provides reliable protection for high-pressure fuel pumps, fuel injectors and precision engine internal components against abrasion, blockage and premature damage. Produced strictly per OEM dimensions, it supports direct plug-and-play installation without modification. Featuring stable flow performance, long service life and cost-effective price, it is a perfect maintenance part for repair shops, fleet operators and global filter wholesalers.
Usage & Installation Method:
Preparation: Shut off the engine, close the fuel inlet valve and release residual fuel pressure in pipelines. Prepare a filter wrench, absorbent rags and a container to collect spilled diesel.
Remove old filter: Twist the old filter counterclockwise to detach it. Clean the mounting base thoroughly to wipe away old gasket residue, dirt and residual fuel completely.
Gasket lubrication: Coat a thin layer of clean diesel on the new rubber sealing gasket. Do not apply grease to avoid rubber swelling and sealing failure.
Install new filter: Tighten the LGS2000311 filter clockwise by hand until the gasket closely attaches to the base, then turn an extra 3/4 turn with a wrench. Never over-tighten to prevent thread breakage and gasket deformation.
Leak test: Restore fuel supply and start the engine for 3-5 minutes idling. Check the joint carefully; installation succeeds if there is no fuel leakage.
Replacement interval: Replace every 18,000–25,000 km under normal highway conditions. Reduce the cycle to 10,000–16,000 km for dusty construction sites or low-quality fuel conditions.
