Having amassed a little collection of filters that do not fit my MD22L in the last few weeks, can anyone point me in the right direction for Volvo original or other manufactures equivalent oil and secondary fuel filters in the east coast USA. I tried the lookups on the NAPA and Fram sites but with no luck. Volvo numbers are Oil: 861476 and fuel: 3840335.

Currently in Cape Canaveral and heading nrth on the ICW. 1 fuel filter left and oil filter is on it's second outing (but had an early change of oil).

Thanks /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
 
The MD22L I believe, is a development of the Perkins Prima 50. If anybody can confirm that the filters are the same, this might widen your search options. Actually, if anyone CAN confirm that, it'll widen my options for the Perkins too!
 
I believe the MD22 is a marinised 2 ltr Perkins Prima. This is the same engine used in the 80/90s Maestro and Montego cars and small vans. As a possible future spare engine or for parts I have sourced and bought a low mileage Maestro with this engine. This is kept at the bottom of my garden, and run up every little while. My present MD22 is running fine but I take the idea of keeping a plentiful supply of spares a tad too seriously.
