Fuel Filter???
« on: 25 October 2007, 17:14 »
Just been to get fuel filter from local stealers....

Was told that the original filter has been superceeded and I need to buy "this" one and a reducer???

WTF is going on here?

yeh I thought it sounded a bit strange! Only prob with ordering it is the P&P, its nearly the same price of the filter itself!

I'll have to buy something else!

The adapter and seal are about £4 for the pair, assuming the filter is original you will need them so may as well order them with the filter  :smiley:
