Not done it yet on the 110 And guess it's about time I did.
Are there any tricks or is it straight forwards?
-
straight forward mate, just unscrew and replace.

wrap an asda bag around filter b4 u unscrew it to save getting oil all over your arms and front diff then bag will catch all the oil

thats a good idea for doing the oil filter change
lee said fuel filter :lol:
lee what type of filter is it ?
a big cannister ?
or a little canister with a sediment bowl at the bottom ?
if its the big cannister, unscrew it make sure you get the seal ring off aswel, then screw new on back on, then theres a little bleed screw on the top of the distribution housing, 10mm with a screw driver slot in it IIRC undo that then prime the filter up, when all the air has gone fuel will start coming out
if its the 2 part
undo the center bolt then the bottom bowl will fall off
then just give the filter eliment a waggle and tug, it'll come out, just sometimes they like to fight :roll:
make sure that the sealing rings are all replaced though,
then its a matter of re-fitting then as above, bleeding up

Sorry !!!I misread it but you can still use a bag on fuel filter saves getting diesel all over yourself it does have to be asda as morrisons bags melt with hot oil in em!!!!! :oops:
-
cheers chaps. I'll have a butchers in the daylight and se which it has.
-
If its the Big cannister job then fill the new filter with Diesel before you screw it back on and then you don't need to prime it up ..... :wink:
