Re: [FWDLK] Carter ceramic filters AVAILABLE.

[Gary Nelson <gnelson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

Back in May there was topic about the inability to find Carter Ceramic fuel filter elements. Years back I had located a couple of hundred old stock and sold out early this year. As I sell parts to Mopar collectors I went out on a search. Whala! I located a small lot. These are old stock mfg. by Federal Mogul off the Carter tooling. FM bought Carter years ago. They are identical to the NOS I have that are packed in Mopar boxes. With this stock I can reduce the price from $26 to $19. I also have new springs that push the filter to the seal, $4.50 ea.

If you want my updated parts list, send e-mail I will send back to you.

Thank you,

To make matters Worse, Autolite had different sized glass bowls, some
sort of shallow, more like the ones I have seen on mopars, And DEEPER
ones, different bowl, filter and clamp, SAME TOP!!!
