Yanmar fuel filters

Anyone know of an alternative supplier of yanmar fuel filters for a 4jh3 engine? Have looked at all the large filter manufacturers for cross refrencing but they dont seem to have a generic filter.

Re: Rocna's new anchor/ Hey, Anchor thread!!!

I have a 80lb and 60lb Manson Supreme on my boat but had to cut the roll bars of to fit my cat walk, and it has made no difference to the performance at all, i think rollbars are just marketing hype.
