Fine Fuel filters

[Hydraulicjump]

I know this topic has been covered in multiple previous posts, but I thought I would see if there is a good update. About to do the 500 hour service on my Yanmar 4BY 180. Yanmar has a goofy system where they do not sell parts on-line, but force you to go to your local distributor to get the factory part, which they then ship to that local distributor how then ships it to you. And they no longer allow the Ranger Tugs factory to sell the parts (all of this says "Volvo" to me). Has anyone found an alternative manufacturer for the fine fuel filter that can be ordered on-line? Got the oil filter on-line and the impeller and belts are no problem.

Sorry if this has all been noted before.

Here is where I get mine. I am not sure if he is allowed to ship to you, but perhaps he can give you the name of a distributor that is allowed to. http://www.j-wayent.com/
