Location: Victoria, BC. Canada | So I finally relented and decided to reuse the Donaldson; however, it will be installed with a lighter mount assembly.
While cleaning it out today to get it ready for paint, I found myself unable to understand how the incoming water (rain) gets channeled to the drip nipple on the bottom.
I concluded there must be a mistake in the assembly and went ahead and made a simple correction.
Anyhow its done and is what it is.

Prolly screwed it up as its likely got something to do with air-swirl inside the can or something otherworldly.
Any thoughts or explanations welcomed.

https://www.airfilter-crossreference.com/convert/DONALDSON/P118159
There's 13 cross references for the P118159 Donaldson cartridge.
Googled it and a whole whack of 'Made in China' ones popped up. Likely all made there regardless but way too many choices.
Anyone got a suggestion to a good one and where to get it?
Thanks,
Terry

On FMCMOTORCOACH.com I have shared the technical bulletins, also the one on the Donaldson filter;
