GFE 300 if I remember rightly, at least that's what I used with mine.

Got a couple spare here I'll send over to you with your other bits :)

Mann w712 is the same for mini a series and marina B series. But not marina A series ;)
If a link was changed to "ebay linky" then that was probably Sam, because she's sad..

GFE443 comes up as for a Mini, so A series as well!!

There are so many part numbers used, probably of course due to the number of applications.

If it's the right thread and the right size I can't imagine there being any problems.

I'm pretty sure my B series ones are GFE300, probably taken from whatever was on the engine when I got it! Same with Ducky which had a Champion D102 which cross referenced as GFE442. It's a minefield but I bet they're all the same!! Probably a different part number for each application regardless of whether the filter is the same or not.

Ah thanks, that's probably what's caused the confusion as it only stated A series on the reciept.:rolls:

One of these borascope cameras £69.99 from aldi so I can have a looking into the cavities to see if they have been covered in wax properly and see how the engine cylinders are doing.

I might even find the waxing nozzle that shot into the 'A' post last time.

Already used it on another car, very clear picture.
