A restricted 1R-1808 lube filter causes the bypass valve to open, allowing unfiltered oil to circulate. This leads to increased wear on the 3406B crankshaft and turbocharger. If you notice a drop in oil pressure or dark, gritty oil, it is time for an immediate replacement with a new 1R1808.
Our replacements utilize an OEM-standard tri-metal structure for internal components, ensuring they can withstand high vibration environments. We are trusted by repair shops and equipment fleets globally for providing consistent 1R-1808 quality that matches original equipment specifications.
