Fuel Filter bracket
« on: 06 November 2012, 18:43 »
are these replaceable?
I want to change my filter but the jubilee strap that holds the filter up has corroded badly and I doubt
I can undo it without causing damage.

Not sure a cable tie to hold up the fuel filter is safe enough for me, Doubt it would pass an MOT either........
