The fuel filter is located on bulk head, to left hand side of the engine. (see pic above) 1: Start by cleaning the area around the filter head. 2: Place a container beneath the fuel filter to catch any spillage. 3: Loosen the bleed screw (shown in the photo) using a 10mm spanner
Screw on the new one. Start engine, it will fire instantly, DO NOT touch the accelerator as this will draw too much fuel and the engine will die before it fills the new filter and bleeds it. It will sound a little rough after a few seconds as it starts to get starved of fuel a bit, then it will idle normally. Job done.
