Subject: Re: photo needed
Sorry mate... I converted from petrol to diesel and more than that the old Turtle is in storage back in Sydney while I am here in Switzerland so taking photos might be a little problematic

The bulkheads are the same only the position and placement of the fuel filters is the difference. If I am correct, the bulkhead (if it was originqally diesel) should have 2 rivnuts just below the bonnet in line more or less with the manifiolds. That is where the filter would have been. The filter is a standard CAV unit....

Other than that, electricery is slightly different (SII diesels had a different starter switch) and accelerator (using the term loosely) linkage is a little different but by not much. Choke cable is used as engine stop. A SIIA would have a different ignition switch - one that includes glow plugs and is probably easier to get. SIIs had a 'normal' SII electical services/lights switch and the large push-button starter switch was replaced by glow-plug/starter switch key operated one (so 2 keys). All diesels had a starter with a solenoid, unlike SII petrol.

The other way we could do this is if you or Inscisor can send me a pic(s) of the original bulkhead I could probably point out where the filter should go...

G'day All, I do have a Series 3 109 Diesel, I do also have a pix of said engine bay but it only shows the fuel delivery pipes, I can take a pix in the morning as the vehicle is just up the street. The fuel filter is bolted onto the bulkhead via 2 Riv-nuts just as someone else stated, if you need a pic Dave I can do in the AM 4 U, but I will need a email address as I'm a dummy 8O and cannot post pix cheers Dennis :roll: :wink: :arrow:
PS You would have my email address??

Suggest it may be worth looking at the parts book. Note that this engine had two fuel filters, side by side on the bulkhead up to suffix J, then a sedimentor replaced the first filter - not sure where this was mounted.
Somewhere i have a picture of my 2a diesel engine bay (taken in 1966), but could take a while to find it.
