Re: External oil filter

ACZS1 is the replaceable bypass cartridge filter that was standard on Rover 20hp cars and optional equipment on other P2s. Many Fram filters were fitted as an aftermarket option. ACZS1 was fitted to a number of other vehicles including series 1 Landrover. They are very hard to find these days and ex...

Re: leaf springs-part number

There is a supplement for the 12 tourer at the end of the 1939-47 parts list. Due to the lighter weight of the 12 tourer, part numbers 07967 and 07968 that are actually 10hp springs, were used.

Re: External oil filter

The Wipac bypass oil filters (they were fitted to 1950 Rover75 -cyclops) are very difficult to find. Similar but smaller filters (ACzr1) were fitted to some Austin cars.

Re: Sump removal

See my post above (15th April) in short yes but the conclusion is no! "The filter cover and filter." There is no separate filter cover. The brass cover is threaded into the boss in the sump. The filter behind it engages with the oil pump pickup. There is a very helpful illustrated parts list publish...
