After examining the air filter on my Cummins I went to a BHAF, Big Honkin' Air Filter, as the creases of the K&N seemed to trap a lot of gook even though it was cleaned pretty frequently. I think the diesels just process too much air.hvac wrote:I had a ton of problems on my truck after using one. I think the oil coats some of the engine's inlet sensors and knocked my MPG down.
Ready to Pull the trigger and order a K&N oil filter for the 5.5 onan q.v., 2017 model. Like the 1 inch nut built on the filter.
Couple of questions. Is the number HP 8029 correct for replacement of onan 122086?
Comments from those who have used these filters?

Does it specifically state on the box the filter comes in, not to use the nut to tighten the filter? I can certainly see someone using the nut with a torque wrench to tighten to the factory torque specs.

Or actual events by people that I've corresponded with. K&N oil filters with the nut on the top are thoroughly vilified by people who have had them fail and dump oil directly in front of their rear wheel. Talk about something that will get your attention in a hurry. Either the filter starts to leak around the nut, or the O-ring is improperly placed to seal the filter, and that results in the oil getting dumped on the ground. Not hype, not internet folklore, real results from real people.
Obviously a registered distributor of K&N products will be totally unbiased. Riiiight.Obviously a registered distributor of K&N products will be totally unbiased. Riiiight.
I've used K&N air filters on my bikes for over 30 years, but I wouldn't put a K&N oil filter on anything I cared about.
