Title: Sump and tank filters
Post by: Kevin1963 on 20 Mar, 2021, 13:38
Just changing oil and both parts original though bottom is knackered, what is best gauze and original sump base or complete new sump plate?
As for the tank filter not sure whether to replace or renew?

Any comments welcomed.

Hi,
    If I had any doubts with oil filtration I would replace with the best possible product within my budget, SRM would be my first stop.

Thanks Bess

Was looking at that one!

Think I'll probably go for a complete new sump base

Having just cleaned out the oil tank one going to replace that as well.

Hi Kev,
          If you weren't already aware Nookys Nuts have a reasonably priced plate kit:
