Title: MCI 102A3 air filter replacement - best source?
Post by: daveola on September 14, 2016, 04:49:34 PM

I'm looking for an air filter for my MCI 102A3 (6V92).

The current filter is a:

Bus air:  Donaldson P522874

I believe these are matching parts, but that may not be true:
  Baldwin PA2839
  Coach Guard T12-1009
  6623 Napa Gold Air Filter
  46623 WIX?


Cost seems to range from $70 to over $100.

Any suggestions on where to get a not-garbage filter for the cheapest price?

I always got mine from NAPA.
But then again I have a commercial acct at NAPA 70% of ALL my parts come from there as well!

Does anyone have a good source for these, or is $70 going to be the best price?  I seem to recall buying one for $30 or $40 at one point.

WIX are excellent filters, I have (during my career in heavy construction) participated in the consumption of more than a million dollars worth :)

Additionally NAPA's filters are made by WIX.
