Try " Filtermania " they have sorted lots of stuff for various engines for me for a while now.

We have the M4.14 which is the same manual so I presume the same filters. The ones I use are:

 

ALCO SP905 - Engine Fuel
ALCO MD093 - CAV Fuel Filter
ALCO SP1001 - Oil Filter

Plus Vetus Electric Fuel Pump filter
ALCO MD461

 

Last purchase was from Northern Filters

That’s the one that everyone forgets until it gets all clagged up and the engine slows...

Yes we had three RCR services and only the last one mentioned it and changed it the other two didn't so now it is on my filter list.

Inline filters was where I got my K3D stuff from when I had the Nauticus.

 

Nice little engines.

Yes, I get mine from Inline Filters .  Just put your Vetus part number in and it will show their (Baldwin) equivalent.   About one third the price of Vetus.
