Hi again Richard.  I have been trying to track down a suitable fuel-filter
to put inline before my pump.  So far I have located a Ryco 1108 filter
however it's a little large for the tight space in the boot for where it
will have to go.  It has unions with screw atachments so the 1/2" fittings
are not a problem with it.  If worst comes to worst I'll jam a 1108 in :-)

However you mention Aeroquip and Earls.  I phoned an Aeroquip distributor
here in Australia and he didn't seem to know of any "fuel filters" just hoses
and stuff :-)  That does not mean that he is right however...you know how
unhelpful distributors can be.  So do you know of any particular Aeroquip
filter? Prices? Part numbers?  Here in Australia what Aeroquip stuff I have
seen is about 200% more expensive than the US prices :-(

Thanks in Advance

Scott.
