Jason I added the Donaldson precleaner used on the off-road equipment. This reduced a lot of the contamination. Mandatory update for me.

My coach has one of these installed. I had to look it up to see what it does, I feel better knowing it is there. Motor dusting is scary with these big beasts. Add up to real coach bucks quick!

Scott- I am going to get one of those. To confirm, there is not a filter that goes in, I did not see one. And it's the 6"?

I ended up ordering the AF1838 from shop.cummins.com, got my account setup there (also a bonus for the 5.9 I have). Two day delivery so should be here tomorrow.

No air filter and no moving parts. It does have a vacuator that will require random replacement. Yes six inch

Speaking of vacuator valves. Your air filter housing also has one and also needs to be randomly replaced also. If its loose or stiff it wont do its job. Also it can allow large amounts of water into the the engine inlet if its missing.

The Donaldson DBA5029 is on back order until December 30th. P150694  is the "standard life" version. Has anyone run that? Wondering if I should snag one of those @ $70 until the 5029's are available. Otherwise there's an EAF5029 on Amazon for $140

How about rebuilding it with an air hose?

Support at Diesel Equipment Inc just informed me that they heard back from Donaldson finally and they have discontinued the DBA5029 completely. You can now only get the standard-life version: Donaldson P150694
