Water Separator/Fuel Filter

[Dan The Man]

I,m looking for a cross reference # to this discontinued Fram Filter #PCS5062M. This filter is 6" long. I've already checked w/ Teague, Eddie Marine @ NAPA and they have all crossed the # to filters that are anywhere from 7.25" to 8" long. As you can see, any longer than 6" and it's hitting the stringer. I really don't want to have to relocate the assemblies. Any suggestions are appreciated.

the quicksilver one is only 4-5 inches long and works great.

I believe the problem here besides length is the thread dia & pitch. He has tried most of them. The mount is from Eddie Marine and the filter it was made for has been discontinued.

Thanks everyone. Problem solved. (I think, as long as they show up at my door.) ordered the exact Fram model from boatfix.com.

Are those Teague mounts? I the Teague mounts and have Napa filters on mine and I think they're no longer than 6 inches with a petcock on the bottom. Can't rememeber the number right now but I can find out if need be....

[Dan The Man]

If you get a chance please let me know the part #. I ordered from boatfix.com only to find out they too are out of stock with no replacement available. It seems like someone would have the 6" version. Who knows? Thanks

Cross it to a Wix. You'll be happy with the quality.

[Geronimo36]

No problem, I'll look it up when I get home... I have the numbers written on the wall in my garage next to the work bench...

Thanks alot G36!

[Geronimo36]

Did it work?

[OldSchool]

That's what used to be on my boat and I have the KE unit. I've been using the Wix replacement that has the drains on the bottom. If you need the number, I'll look at the spare pair when I get home.

I can't believe I cannot find the damn thing anywhere. G36 The NAPA 3123 was close, but the threads were different. Took them back and the guy said it needed a 1-14 thread ??? Old School, give me a number and I'll check that out. Thanks all.

It's pouring down rain right now here. I'll walk down to my boat when it stops and get the numbers for you.

Dan,
Sorry about taking so long to respond, but I have bad news. The WIX filter # that I switched to is WIX 33418. The problem is that it's about 7.5 inches long + the petcock on the bottom of it. Too long for sure for your application. Sorry about the mis-info.

Dan, whos brand filter housing do you have???

[Geronimo36]

Have you tried the Fram PS3712?

[Dan The Man]

The housing was purchased @ Eddie Marine about 3 years ago. I'll ck. out that Fram #. Thanks and thanks for checking anyway Old School.

Hey Dan,
Have you tried the WIX 33405? It is a 1x14 thread and including the petcock is just over 7" long. I use it on some equipment and thought it may work. Here is a list of a other 1x14 filters that cross with it but are different lengths etc.
