    Original BMW fuel filters

    Does anyone have pictures and sizes of the decal on the fuel filters they could post up ?
    There's some on eBay which shows half of one, but ideally looking for someone with one who can provide full details.
    Thanks

    This type.

      I would imagine he's looking to reproduce the label because new ones are different.

            How soon until someone works out which employees sprayed on the cosmoline, on which day, when they were out sick, and what each individual spray pattern normally was? All that so they can do a 25k engine bay resto only to cover it in yellow crap.

            OTOH, if it's just to catalogue it for future reference, then the best of luck to you OP.

                  Yep. Happened when values started to climb and people started doing nut and bolt rebuilds.

                  Do you see my other post in getting the exact same, or as close to, electric rad fan ?

                      I have yet to see anyone brave enough to slather that stuff all over their fresh engine bay. Someone undoubtedly has, but I just haven't seen it yet.

                        I think I'll draw the line there. That said, it seemed effective on cars in the UK that got used all year round and covered in much and road salt etc.

                          Just drag the photo from your desktop onto the site. That's it. It'll upload and then give you a link. You don't need to make an account.
