Inlet valves

[Harbourwoodwork]

I need two inlet valves for a BMC 1800 diesel marinised engine out of a 1974 Sherpa. Anybody got any ideas of where I can source these?

But at that price,, they mush be gold plated?

Cheaper, but just check they are correct?

The air filter has just come off It looks like its been at the bottom of a water butt for 10years.c Can these be serviced ? Any clues? Cheers

Not familiar with it, has it oil in the bottom and a wire gauze?

Or a paper element?

 

[Harbourwoodwork]

it has a cicular gauze filter i don't know if it had oil at one time

 

[Mursal]

Yes, oil (engine oil will do) in the bottom, up to the arrow on the side, about 25mm deep. Some have a step in the enclosure to show the correct level
