    Oil Filter Conversion

    Been looking at changing from cartridge to filter, on my S3, 3brg, 2 1/4 petrol motor.
    What adapter suits, and to which later models/year were they fitted.
    Had a look through the local wrecking yards.
    They said they maybe able to find one if above details are supplied.
    These guys still make them, new batch arriving in a couple of months. ($220 delivered)

    Engine Parts

    Maybe I can find a cheaper S/H one.
    Thanks.

    I don't think you will find a second hand one - I think the only engines related to this that used a spin on filter were the 2.5 development of it. These were never sold in Australia, and although there are a few private imports, the chances of finding one at a wrecker would be pretty slim.

    The 90/110, County were never sold in Australia with the four cylinder motor, only the V8 or Isuzu. In fact the 90 was never sold in Australia until well into Defender production. The 200Tdi and 300Tdi are ultimately descended from this engine, but apparently the filter setup is not interchangeable.

    The Santana descendant of the Rover engine did have a spin on filter, but again, this was never sold in Australia. In fact, I don't think any Santana vehicle has ever been sold here.

    I wonder if there are any Santana personal imports here, I would love a PS10 but they are not 25 years old yet.

    I've never seen or heard of any being here, but that doesn't mean there aren't one or two. Although if one is driving about you would expect someone on this forum to have noticed it.

    Did you get the last one.............Incisers ebay link has sale ended

    If you get onto more than one I'm interested..........I thought about this months ago, but thought they would be readily available so didn't pursue it as hard as I should have.

    Cheers Paul
