Peter,
GFE4 actually replaced GFE119 in the Unipart range, they ARE NOT the
same filter - the GFE119 did its job well, the GFE4 should never be
fitted to a Triumph engine, no matter what Unipart claims in its
listings, because it drains almost as soon as the engine is switched
off. The latest Champion D102 (which had previously been my preference)
has the same problem, so I no longer recommend these either.
Just wanted to clarify this,
Regards,
Bill.
