Escadrille Ecosse Posted April 16 Posted April 16 Need to restock on oil filters for the Scimitar. It uses the same GFE121/22/422 as fitted to the MGB and MGBGTV8. Current variety fitted is a TJ/QH which wouldn't be my first choice to be honest but the premium GFE22 Unipart filters are NLA. What would other recommend as a reputable brand?

Escadrille Ecosse Posted April 16 Author Posted April 16 Thanks Nick. I was sure there had been some discussion on this previously but blowed if I could find it
Nick Jones Posted April 16 Posted April 16 FWIW, one of the GFE121 equivalents they list is the same 714/2 I use on my sixes. Has double anti drain valves - probably irrelevant to RV8 though. 1
Speedysix Posted April 19 Posted April 19 Another +1 for the 714/2 filter. Hoped it would prevent the dreaded start up rattle with the anti drain flaps. https://amzn.eu/d/2obJt4L About 12 quid on amazon
Escadrille Ecosse Posted April 19 Author Posted April 19 Thanks Nick, and Speedy. Three 916/1 for the Scimitar are on their way from Merlin. They were only £8.80 each which seemed very decent. 1
