Engine Protection Built for Harsh Australian Conditions
Protect your diesel fuel system from expensive damage with the Donaldson Diesel Pre-Filter Kit. This high-quality pre-filter removes water, rust, and fine contaminantsbefore they reach your factory fuel filter.
Modern common-rail diesel engines operate at extreme pressures (up to 3,100 bar / 45,000 psi). Even small amounts of water or dirt can destroy injectors or high-pressure fuel pumps β repairs that often cost thousands of dollars. This pre-filter adds an essential first line of defence.
