I was thinking of going for a disposable plastic filter!!!

Will this be a problem running an electric fuel pump though??

Both oil leak and fuel leak sorted.....

The O ring on the filter king had shrunk and needed replacing! Wonder how long I had been loosing fuel before it became obvious!

Looking forward to a difference in MPG!!!!!

Oil leak was due to a slightly perished oil filler neck base, seems to have shrunk, perished over the 37 years have done a short term fix but wondered if any NOS or repro parts are available any where? :?: :?: :?:
