Why Choose Donaldson Filters for Your Fleece Fuel System?
Donaldson is one of the most trusted names in filtration, and their P553203 fuel filters are engineered to meet rigorous performance standards. These filters keep contaminants out of high-pressure common-rail systems, preventing injector wear, hard starts, reduced power, and premature pump failure—especially crucial for tuned or heavily worked diesel trucks.
Installation Notes
- Designed to fit directly into Fleece filter housings with no modification.
- Prime the fuel system after replacing filters to prevent air-lock conditions.
- Always clean filter housings and seals before installing new filters.
- Follow OEM and Fleece service intervals—more frequent changes recommended for towing or dusty environments.

FAQ
Are these filters the exact replacements used in the Fleece L5P and Cummins auxiliary kits?
Yes. The Donaldson P553203 is the same filter element included with the OEM Fleece filter assemblies. This case of 12 is perfect for long-term maintenance or fleet use.
How often should I replace these filters?
Service intervals depend on fuel quality and usage. Most truck owners replace them every 10,000–15,000 miles, while heavy-towing or tuned trucks may require more frequent changes.
Will these filters work without a Fleece fuel filter kit?
No. These are designed specifically for the filter housings included with Fleece kits. They are not drop-in replacements for stock OEM housings.
Do the filters include new O-rings or seals?
Yes. Each Donaldson P553203 filter includes its required sealing components.
Is Donaldson a better choice than generic aftermarket filters?
Absolutely. Donaldson is one of the world’s top filtration manufacturers, known for industry-leading particle control and water separation—critical in modern high-pressure common-rail systems.
