Has anyone found an alternative (maybe plastic) fuel filter from their local motor factors that'll do the submersible job?
I have a couple of X-refs of the Ducati part number, but my local factors don't seem to be able to make sense of them.
NAPA # 3032 to be exact. Also, the BMW K75, K100 fuel filter (# 13321461265).
The bottom line is it seems is that any 5/16 nipple fuel injection filter (aluminum can type) that's 2"--3" long (w/o nipples) and about 2" diameter will work just fine for our 4 valvers.
don't know if you guys get ryco but a Z200 works in mine. oh, and don't use a plastic one, they aren't designed to be submersed in petrol and can burst with 3.0 bar (or more) pressure.
Interesting, but my local motor factors produced a plastic filter when asked to cross reference that list. I have asked them to price the greman version that I had originally............
I think it's an "every two years/5,000 miles" job. A new one is £13.50, and while not a huge amount, lots of peeps seem to think you can get them for a fiver or less. I thought I'd get one for the tank and another for the spares box.
