If you mean the external filter and housing use a Racor spin-on cartridge and housing with the integral pump for priming. The model of the housing I prefer is R215R2. Available from West Marine, Amazon, eBay, etc. I recommend using the R15T 10 micron spin on element for this. The Yanmar engines have a 2 micron cartridge mounted on the engine just above the high pressure fuel pump. I use the original Yanmar filter elements and replace the o-ring on the housing cover.
