Detailed Product Description

The Baldwin B7379 engine oil filter is engineered to meet the filtration requirements of Ford Super Duty trucks with the 6.7L turbo diesel V8 engine. Its integral gasket ensures a tight seal to prevent leaks, while the anti-drainback valve helps maintain oil pressure during engine startup by preventing oil from draining out of the filter. The 20 psid by-pass valve allows oil to bypass the filter element if it becomes clogged, ensuring continuous oil flow to critical engine components. With a height of 6 7/16 inches and an outside diameter of 3 11/16 inches, this filter fits precisely in the designated filter housing of Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty models. The Baldwin B7379 is a direct replacement for the Motorcraft FL2051, providing a reliable alternative for maintenance and repair.
