The oil filter LF3594 is used in various vehicles. Oil filters come in different types, each designed to serve a specific purpose. They include:
Spin-on oil filters:
These oil filters use housings and bases made of metal. They are designed for easy removal and installation. One can remove and install them using simple hand tools. Spin-on oil filters have a gasket at their base, which helps create a seal when attached to the oil filter adapter.
Screw-type oil filters:
They are also known as cartridge or spin-type oil filters. They are not very common in modern engines. These oil filters use special wrenches when removing or installing. They have filters and fittings made of metal, making them suitable for high-pressure applications.
Cartridge oil filters:
These oil filters use plastic or metal for the body and are designed to hold the filtering element in place. They are useful in applications where maintaining cleanliness is crucial. Cartridge oil filters are compatible with both spin and thread-type fittings, making them versatile.
Coalescing oil filters:
These oil filters focus on removing water and solid particles from the oil. They are useful in applications where oil purity is critical. Coalescing oil filters use specialized media to help them combine smaller particles into larger ones so that they can be easily removed.
Magnetic oil filters:
Magnetic oil filters use magnets to remove metal particles from the oil. They are commonly used in applications where metal contamination is a significant concern. These oil filters help protect oil from damage, ensuring it serves its purpose.
High-efficiency oil filters:
These oil filters use advanced technology to remove particles from oil. They are suitable for applications where maintaining oil quality is essential. High-efficiency oil filters help increase the lifespan of oil by ensuring it has a consistent flow and quality.
The Lf3594 oil filter is a spin-on filter that uses high-quality materials and advanced filtration technology to provide reliable filtering performance. Below are some of the specifications:
Filter media
The LF3594 oil filter uses synthetic filter media. They have an excellent filtering efficiency of up to 99% to remove contaminants from the oil. Also, the filter media has high dirt-holding capacity, which helps to prolong the filter's lifespan.
Thread size
The oil filter has a thread size of 1-16 inches. The size ensures the oil filter can be screwed onto the engine easily and quickly.
Height
The height of the oil filter is 3.4 inches. A shorter oil filter has a compact design that helps to save space in the engine.
Outside diameter of the top
The outside diameter of the LF3594 oil filter is 3.4 inches. The measure is important since it determines how the oil filter fits in tight spaces in the engine.
Flow rate
The oil filter has a high flow rate of 20 gallons per minute. The high flow rate ensures the oil filter does not restrict oil flow during filtering.
Operating pressure
The oil filter has a maximum of 150 psi. The pressure allows the oil filter to function well, even during high-stress engine operations.
Anti-drain valve
The oil filter has an anti-drain valve made using nitrile rubber material. The anti-drain valve helps to prevent the oil filter from emptying when the engine is not running. Thus, ensuring there is a constant supply of oil when the engine starts and reducing wear and tear on the engine.
One-way valve
The LF3594 oil filter has a one-way valve made using stainless steel. The valve prevents the oil filter from back-flowing.
Filter media
The LF3594 oil filter uses synthetic filter media. They have an excellent filtering efficiency of up to 99% to remove contaminants from the oil. Also, the filter media has high dirt-holding capacity, which helps to prolong the filter's lifespan.
Below are some of the maintenance requirements for the LF3594 oil filter.
Oil filter change
It is important to change the oil filter every time the engine oil is changed. The recommended interval for an oil change is between 3,000 to 7,000 miles, depending on the car model.
Use the right tools
When changing the oil filter, use the right tools such as an oil filter wrench. The tool will help remove the oil filter without damaging it.
Use quality oil
When changing the oil filter, fill the engine with quality oil. The oil helps to lubricate the filter and prevent it from drying out.
Check for leaks
After changing the oil filter, check for any signs of leaks. Inspect the oil filter housing and the area around the oil filter for leaks. In case of any leaks, remove the oil filter and re-install it properly.
Oil filter
Always use the LF3594 oil filter, especially for cars that require a Fleetguard oil filter. The oil filter will ensure proper fitting and performance.
When sourcing oil filters for resale, here are some factors to consider:
Compatibility
The LF3594 oil filter is compatible with a number of Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. However, it is not compatible with all vehicles under these brands. For instance, the LF3594 filter is not compatible with many modern vehicles under the Volkswagen Group. Oil filters are not compatible with several other vehicles under the Toyota Motor Corporation. Therefore, retailers should ensure the vehicles in their target market are compatible with the oil filter.
Branding
Some brands of oil filters have a loyal customer base. End users may prefer ordering their oil filters from a original equipment manufacturer (OEM) brand. Retailers may need to source aftermarket brands of oil filters for clientele that prefers purchasing from their known brands.
Vehicle Age
As vehicles age, they become less compatible with oil filters that were compatible with them. This is due to many factors such as modifications and engine component wear. Therefore, it is important to target vehicle models that are compatible with the oil filter.
Vehicle Make and Model
Even if the oil filter is compatible with a vehicle's make and model, the filter's compatibility is assessed based on the engine's make and model. Therefore, it is important to specify the engine's make and model when sourcing the oil filter.
Changing a heavy-duty oil filter LF3594 is not as hard as many people think. With the right tools and materials, the process can be seamless. The materials needed include fresh oil, clean rag, a new oil filter, a filter wrench, funnel, jack stands, and raised vehicle support. Below are the steps to follow:
Prepare the vehicle
To start with, ensure the vehicle is parked on a flat ground surface. Also, make sure the engine is not running. After doing these, raise the vehicle using jacks and jack stands.
Locate the oil filter
The next step is to locate the oil filter. The oil filter is usually attached to the engine and can be seen easily.
Remove the oil
Once the oil filter LF3594 has been located, the next step is to remove the oil. Use a filter wrench to remove the oil.
Install a new oil filter
Before installing a new oil filter, make sure to apply a small amount of new oil to the rubber gasket. After doing this, install the new oil filter and hand-tighten it.
Q1: How often should an oil filter be changed?
A1: Generally, it is advisable to change the oil filter every time the engine oil is changed. This is typically recommended every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, depending on the vehicle.
Q2: Can one reuse an oil filter?
A2: No, it is not recommended to reuse oil filters. Used oil filters can contain contaminants that can harm the engine, and they may not provide the same level of protection as a new filter.
Q3: What happens if an oil filter is not changed?
A3: Failing to change the oil filter can lead to several engine problems. The oil filter will become clogged over time, blocking the flow of oil and causing it to circulate. This can cause the engine to overwork and potentially damage it.
Q4: How long do oil filters last?
A4: Oil filters generally last up to 10,000 miles. However, this can change depending on the type of oil used in the car and the quality of the oil filter.
Q5: Why is changing the oil filter important?
A5: Changing the oil filter is important because it ensures that the engine's oil remains clean. The oil filter traps and removes debris and contaminants from the engine oil, which can cause wear and tear on the engine parts.
