Baldwin BF798 Fuel Filter
The Baldwin BF798 is a spin-on fuel filter designed for automotive and industrial fuel systems. It uses a 15 micron media rating to remove contaminants before they reach the engine. The filter features an integral gasket and integral post seal for a complete seal in one assembly. It threads onto a M24-1.50 port for direct installation.
Replacing a clogged spin-on filter
This filter replaces an existing spin-on unit when the service interval is reached or fuel flow becomes restricted. The jump is worth it when the old element can no longer trap particles at the 15 micron level. A fresh BF798 restores the intended filtration efficiency for the fuel system. It fits the same M24-1.50 thread as the outgoing filter housing.
Verify thread size and clearance
Check that the engine or filter head uses a M24-1.50 thread before ordering. Confirm the 6 9/16 inch height and 3 11/16 inch diameter clear the surrounding brackets and lines. Ensure the integral gasket and post seal design matches the sealing surface of your housing. The unit includes the seals required for installation.

Questions about this item
What thread size does the BF798 spin-on filter require for mounting?
The filter mounts on an M24 x 1.50 thread, so the engine or filter head must provide that exact thread pitch for a proper seal.
How do you install the BF798 and what step is often missed?
Lubricate the integral gasket with clean fuel, spin the filter on until the gasket contacts the base, then tighten an additional three-quarters to one full turn by hand — skipping the lubrication step causes leaks.
When should the BF798 be replaced and what indicates it is due?
Replace at the engine manufacturer's recommended interval or sooner if fuel flow drops, the filter canister shows damage, or the integral post seal weeps fuel.
