    Fleetguard Filters

    Folks

    Scratch the FS 1221 from Fleetguard. The OEM Landy part has an internal seal and support which if NOT present will cause the filter to mal function.

    We sell them here at my work that is full retail price could do better for you.
    Air sorry no price I use K&N about the $150 mark.
    Be wary of fitting a 'longer' filter, I know of at least one engine seized when the diff punched a small hole in the oil filter just before a high speed run up the freeway.

    I've heard of a couple of Discos with this happening with a Z9 filter. I believe a Defender has deeper chassis rails (Is this true ?) so the engine should sit slightly higher in the chassis and the diff will still kiss a Z9 length filter on extreme articulation/bump.

    And FWIW, Coopers in the UK don't make the OE ERR3340 oil filter.
    Delphi make it, and it's a pretty ingenious design. The element uses no end caps, the ends of each pleat are glued, it is a heavily pressed cellulose media and is embossed with dimples to keep the correct pleat spacing.

    I have a few Beta Ratios (filtration efficiency #'s) of a few filters if anyone is interested, although I have a feeling I've posted them before.
