Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Here is one on ebay, you should probably be able to get one ordered in in most good motor factors or direct from Mazda

    I use one like this, it's never failed me yet on any screw on filter. Might be an option for you?

    Should clarify, I have a universal one, not an exact one you're looking for.

    Found this offering from Sealey. Diameter is 76mm which I think might do the trick, but check the number of flutes so that it fits the profile of your filter

    Thanks shamwari for your help,much appreciated.
    The unit I am looking for is 75.6mm with 14 flutes,Mazda would have to be different to all the others,all though I do think the Ford 2.3 engine uses the same size unit.
