Escadrille Ecosse Posted April 16 Share 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 Share Posted April 16 Thanks Nick. I was sure there had been some discussion on this previously but blowed if I could find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Jones Posted April 16 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedysix Posted April 19 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escadrille Ecosse Posted April 19 Author Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
