RE: [ST] Replacement Fuel Filters

["Rick & Joyce" <rnjwes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rod,
I?ve also used the BMW filter and currently have an inexpensive automotive
aftermarket filter installed with no adverse effects.  

There are two other mods I?ve considered.  One is to install the filter
external to the tank for ease of access.  The other is to use a larger
automotive filter in-tank which has the same size hose fittings.  Bosch
makes one (0450 905 030) that's about the size of a can of soup which has a
2 year / 30k mile replacement interval. See

In searching the web I found lots of references to a exact replacement
Triumph in tank fuel filter.  One was a BMW part number 16 14 2 325 859
and another, possibly a Ducatic part, part number unknown.  On one list a
guy listed a Purolator F20011, AC GF61, Fram G2, Motocraft FG-2, Wix 33032,
and Napa Gold 3032 all as direct replacements.  Funny, a lot of them don't
cross to each other.  Has anyone actually used these car fuel filters in
their "in tank" system?  If so how did it do?
