Seems westerbeak has a 6 week delay in supplying oil filter part 300209. My supplier suggests a WIX 51334 instead. Anyone have experience with this.

We have had our boat for 21 years and for most of that period we have use as our oil filter NAPA Gold 1334. It is one of the recommended alternatives for our engines. I believe your suggestion is also one. Others include Kubota 700000-15241 and Fram PH3593A. You can search the forum for that listing.

Enrique, my engine is M35B, the original oil filter part number is 300209. I have been using WIX 51365 for many years. It has pressure release spring inside to allow oil circulation if the filter is clogged. They are available at O'Reilly or any other auto part store. The fuel filter that is on the engine I use WIX 33390.
