Had trouble sourcing one in Australia.

It seems the main source is Gineico the original distributor. They quoted $126.50 each.

A horrified mate rang one of his diesel engineers who had 1 in old stock and was prepared to sell for $25 (and make a 100% profit)

For the future these are the filter equivalences
Part number equivalents are
Fiamm FT4664
AC X91
Fram P4512
Coopers LSF5123
Ruggerini 17511
Clean DO315
Slanzi 407045
Fispa FOE191
Savara 50524

Other engines that used the Drofin filter were
Ruggerini
PK105,CRDK100, RDK901,RDM901, CRD100, P101 AND OTHERS
SLANZI
DVA460, DVA790, DVA920, DVA1030

Hope this keeps our Drofins running for a long time.

Geoff

Baldwin Vic are uninterested, and Baldwin dealer ProFilter in WA would have to order it in. The UFI 23.104.00 is on eBay for $27 + $31postage ex De. Anybody in Melb want to share an order? GK 0438684318

3rd try. Dandenong Baldwin dealer is Multispare 87876600 $45 for FT4664
Derrimut is trade only (and pathetic, since their rep was wrong re unavailability)

G'day Geoff,
Thanks for the update. I still have 2 new ones but I will need to source more later on.
Regarding the engine anode, a long time ago I think you said it was an alloy not just zinc. Is that right?
Thanks
kip
