fitting a fuel filter to vRS

Featured Replies

i've read a few guides but does the filter need priming with diesel before its fitted? how much diesel?

thanks

1/2 litre, but it will self prime in any case.

but doesnt self priming really mean it could burn the starter motor out possibly?

Do the priming in two or three 5 second cranking sessions. never had a problem and I change my fuel filter every other year.

Make sure the engine is up to running temp before you do the filter - gives the starter the easiest job for starting.

( when up to temp - leave to stand for 10 mins after switching off before pulling any pipes )

Can anyone point me in the direction of this guide please?
