Product Information
The newest fuel filter for the 2001-Present Duramax Engines is the Racor PFF50216. Racor makes the AC/Delco filter (TP3012) for GM but you can get it here for much cheaper than any dealer will sell it to you. Most GM/Chevy dealers are selling the same filter packaged as the AC/Delco TP3012 for 64.00 or more each. Even Rock Auto Discount Auto Parts online sells them for 42.79. We sell them for 36.99.
Buy 2 and pay 34.48 each, Buy 3 or more pay 31.00 each. Just use the drop down menu to add the amount of filters beyond the first filter and the price will automatically be adjusted.
The Problem
Non-OEM tested "will-fit" replacement fuel filter reproductions do not offer proven real world engine protection. "Will-fit" fuel filters using only paper pleats have lower performance in low quality and biodiesel fuels.
Racor’s genuine high-efficiency long-life "depth coalescing media" replacement fuel filter. The PFF50216 has been tested to OEM standards for life, efficiency, water removal, and is now standard and backward compatible on all GM Duramax engine applications. The coalescing filter system inside has up to twice the life and improved water removal in all blends and types of diesel fuel when compared to other paper media filters.
• OEM tested and proven coalescing fuel filter, direct replacement
• Up to twice the life of standard media filters for reduced maintenance costs
• Backward compatible with all Duramax fuel filter applications
• Primary depth coalescer followed by a secondary polishing filter provides the highest water and particle removal efficiency available in a diesel fuel filter.

How It Works
Racor’s PFF50216 is a genuine direct replacement coalescing fuel filter for the GM Duramax engine.
The Racor coalescer fuel filter system contains a primary coalescing and a secondary polishing stage. The coalescing stage has multiple layers of specialized media that traps dirt and extracts finely dispersed water out of diesel fuel.
The secondary filter strips away remaining water and polishes the fuel.
The Racor coalescer system provides up to twice the life when compared to standard pleated media filters.
The unique can design is proven to resist impact and seal deformation, "will-fit" reproductions may use a different, unproven design.
