MD7A Alternative Oil filter

[Nudge]

Need to oil change the engine this weekend and think the postal strike will scupper my OEM filter arriving. As a stop gap, can anyone quote an auto type filter number that would be an alternative?

See if you can cross-reference it Here or Here

MoodySabre,

Thanks for the tip - for ref it would be Fram PH3614 - which I think is the number I have written in the manual - which is on the boat.

Cheers,

Nudge

According to This site it is the same as the VP 2000 series filter in which case I have this list as alternatives

Crosland 659
Unipart GFE 210
Fram PH2874

Any motor factor can find you something to match those.

When I need a new filter for my MD7A I just tell my local chandler what engine I have, and he hands over a generic filter - I can't even remember the brand. Works as well as any OEM filter AFAIK.
