        I would advise installing an air filter restriction indicator because these are the only machines in the world that have the air filter positioned so that the cooling fan blows directly into it. Another issue that Yuchai is ignoring. If you are operating in very dusty conditions, check your filter daily. I would also advise against Fram air filters too – it’s been my experience that they channel easily. I simply relocated a Donaldson filter on mine to get it out of the engine compartment where it doesn’t belong.

        It should also be noted that your oil filter will not fit all TY395 series engines. These engines are installed using either SAE or metric threaded filter heads. Adapters are available through Ranch Hand Supply to change the metric threads to SAE

          Good idea.  As I recall, the air filters on the old farm tractors I grew up driving all were located well above the hood, near the exhaust pipe. :good:

          You’re probably also right about the MANN filter not fitting all 395 engines, but the filters Circle G sent me didn’t even come close.  FWIW, the MANN filter has metric threads, was originally for a ’91 – ’94 Audi Quattro V8. :wacko:

          You can take the boy away from the farm, but you can't take the farm away from the boy. 😉

            Today all Ag and construction equipment has the engine air intake well away from dust and dirt, as well as exhaust. Almost all have pre-cleaners too.

                It’s an older model I got off of Ebay, but a more current model is available at SC.

                I’m not by the dozer right now, but here is a bad pic of the label.

                  This one may also work.

                    I used PVC pipe and rubber DWV elbows for the installation.

                      Hey Ken, did that info work for you? I’m the kind of guy that appreciates acknowledgements.

                        Information was great, think I can make it all work.  Appreciate all of your help over the last couple of years.  Ken

                          I live in an area where I don’t always have internet.  Sorry for the delay.  Ken

                            I know what you mean. A lot of the time I have to rely solely on my phone.

                              Phone is our internet service. When the signal is good enough. I live in a internet cell phone black hole.

                                Totally understand. I can’t even get Satellite because of the trees.
