Gauze oil filter

Post by G3L1946 »

Hi all,

Is the gauze filter, in the oil tank engine feed, removable on a ‘47 G3L? Whilst the oil tank is empty I thought I would check it and, if necessary, give it a clean? They don’t appear in the spares lists I have if needed to be replaced.

Cheers,

Steve

Yes it unscrews for cleaning. Have another look. It's in the 47 parts list and AMOC spares as well.

Hi Dave,

I’m looking at pages 37/38/39 of the 1947 spares manual and can’t, for the life in me, see it!
Any idea part number?
Thanks, as ever, for your help.
