Lump Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 The water fuel separator bowl started leaking around the adjustable tap earlier this year and I removed it and replaced it with an inline filter. I'd like to replace it as I occasionally have problems with water in the fuel and the bowl gave a quick visual check. I have seen these in other cars such as escorts etc. Here's one that looks similar http://www.mossmotors.com/Shop/ViewProd ... exID=56348 I've had a look on trade me but I can only find marine style products is there anywhere in NZ where I can get one?

P_Star Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 dredging up memories from the dark distant past I believe "series" Landrovers had a similar system... perhaps that would be a place to start? along these lines http://www.roverparts.com/product/img/Icn/5471.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I'm fairly sure I've seen something similar (noted because the Prince runs one) in E Hayes & Son down here (local Hammer Hardware) they cater for small bore engines and all manner of crap so, possibly a similar place up north will do the same.

CaMpylobacter Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 dunno how big or small you want it but go into any tractor/machinery/whatever palce and ask for a CAV type complete fuel filter assembly. sorted. and filters are like $2 to replace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 i think weber specs probably sell them, but I would imagine they would be cheaper at a tractor shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lump Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Its leaking from under the adjustable tap, I have pulled it apart before and it doesn't use an o ring in that part - the seal is like a flat discus and I don't think it could be replaced.

FLAWLES Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 a seal like a doughty type washer ( may have that spelt wrong ) which is like a metal ring with a rubber in-sert in the middle? if so just hit down to your local hyd shop and get some simple fix shit me that looks like the old water trap of a xa coon of sorts ( how i miss that whale of a car ) fyi alot of parts places dont list these as water trap/seperator filters they have them down as fuel filters, and most young cats will not know what one is but i would also try any ford/holden wreaker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
