[Mgs] MGA spin-on oil filter

[David F. Darby]

Hello Don,

If you have the Moss adapter (part no. 235-940), you have quite a range of
choices. Barney lists 34 different models from 22 manufacturers.

My preference is for the WIX #51516. This is a commonly used number for
foreign and domestic models. You should be able to get it most anywhere. If
you have clearance problems, you can run the shorter 51335.

Cheers,

David

The PO of my Mk 2 put an adaptor kit so that it now has a spin on oil 
filter.  I want to change oil and filter, and need to purchase a new 
filter.  Any recommendations for brand?  And more importantly, does 
anyone have a part number for a replacement filter?  The one on the 
car is a Carquest 85516, but the parts place I just called doesn't 
have a cross reference for this one.
Thansk!
