Coolant-Detroit Diesel Series 60
#21

Steve D.,

They (the seated coach operator) installed a Luber Finer LFW4685 on my Series 60 with the Final Charge Global OAT coolant. They've been running Prevost coaches for 25-30 years, have north of 30 buses, and service a good number of customer coaches, so I'm comfortable with their guidance.

Robert, I would caution you. I called the people who produce Final Charge Global and a Detriot service center they both told me to flush the system and replace it, if a SCA filter was used with it. Newell also used a LFW4685 and it is indeed a SCA release filter. In my opinion I decided to follow the direction of the coolant manufacturer and the Detriot SC. Newell told me the same- it wont matter what filter is used. Logic and to side with caution i decided to flush/ replace and used the correct filter.

Jesse, per my research on Luber Finer's site (and per the discussions I had with two people at the service company) , the LFW4685 is non-SCA. Here is the snippet from Luber Finer documentation viewable at

Tom,
Filterbarn did close unfortunately. Prior to closing their stock became less and less, so I looked for alternatives. I watch EBAY for deals on filters I use and Amazon sometimes is good.
