Secondary Fuel Filter

Post by Kenan »

Hi, can anyone help me with regard to replacing my secondary fuel filter which is a throw away type for a MD7 Volvo Penta marine deisel on a Cape Dory 30. It is a MD7 2 cylinder 12 horse power. My old filter does not have any identification on it and I'm not sure with what filter to replace it with, as I'm in Panama which does not have a local Volvo dealer. If anyone has any suggestions of a filter I can use made by another company, I would appreciate it.

Here are a couple replacements for the engine oil filter and the fuel filter:

OIL FILTERS
Volvo 834337
NAPA 1348
Baldwin BT-233
Microlite 14303
John Deere AM101207

FUEL FILTERS
Volvo 243464
NAPA 3472

How's the trip? Where are you from and where are you going? How do you like the CD30? I'm jealous! (we have about 3 ft. of snow out here)

Cheers!

Larry answered your questions about oil/fuel filters, but we would REALLY be interested in knowing the details of you trip. How did you get your CD30 to Panama, etc., etc.?
