Pinto Oil Filter

Quick question...

Why is the Champion 102 listed for all pinto engines except the 1600 injection engine..?

Also, anyone know the shortest filter length available..?

Cheers

Pete

I think the f2 stock car pinto engines use a renault filter. Possibly renault 5 turbo its only about 3 1/2" long. Hopefully somebody can confirm this.

Have checked with someone in the know and he confirmed its a renault 5 or clio 1.4 oil filter thats fitted to f2 pinto engines. He says its only about 2" long. Hope this helps.

Was there ever an injected 1600 Pinto?

No idea Andy...

I'll go with a good ole Champion C102 and suck it and see... At less than £3, you can't really go wrong...!

Always amazes me that people will buy filters off evilBay, and pay £3 for postage for a £3 item... Never heard of Halfrauds...??
