Thank you Jeremy, that is praise indeed. I do try and make my videos from the viewers point of view and how I would want to see every possible step. I appreciate your comment. 🙂👍
Hi Jeremy I took a look at your wall art on your website. I much say you have some really beautiful stuff. I’m a bit of an aeroplane buff and love warbirds, so this is right up my street. 👍🙂
@@EverydayWorkshop Thank you. I'm presently working on a prototype, full size Spitfire MkIX panel measuring 1500 x 1000m, port side, just aft the cockpit, which includes the Radio Hatch and the top of the the wing fairing and centre to the roundel. We just started riveting the 900+ rivets today.
That sounds awesome, I would love to see the finished article or the work in progress. You should make a video. I will certainly look out for it on your website. 🙂👍
Having done this today I would just add that if you have the vehicle on ramps the filter bowl comes out ok. If you have it on axle stands you will need to put a jack under the driver side (UK) suspension arm and raise it up, otherwise the driveshaft will be in the way and you won't get the bowl out. I discovered this the hard way!😊😊
Thank you, it very nice to know it’s clear to understand. I try not to miss out any steps needed to tackle the task. And I will try try to get more maintenance videos posted, I have some in the pipeline 😊👍.
when lifting the new filter cartridge up into place you need to have the top opening into the cartridge covered until the very last second to prevent any grit dropping inside the cartridge, any small amount of dirt that drops inside the cartridge will cause major problems, because any dirt inside the cartridge will be carried to the injectors.
Hi, If I wont to empty the fuel tank for XC60, should I remove the filter, and just keep pressing the start button without brake? The pump should push the fuel out through the open filter?
Hi Andries, to be honest I,m not sure. I’m sure you could try it, although it will great more air in the lines once the tank emptied. Let us know how you get on. Maybe someone on hear knows the answer.
Hi, as far as I know there isn’t a torque setting for the fuel filter housing. (Although I could be wrong) If you use a the correct size spanner or socket and just make sure it’s tight so that it doesn’t leak or suck in air. Remember it is only plastic so don’t get carried away although it’s fairly robust so don’t be to worried. It is hard to communicate how to tighten correctly by feel, if you are not used to doing similar tasks, it just comes with a little experience. Hope I’ve helped. Let us know how you get on.

By far the most comprehensive instructions on TH-cam. Thank you.

That is a great piece information and something I hadn’t considered. I will add the info to the video description. Thank you. 👍🙂

Thanks, and thanks for the very helpful video!
Great video, do you know what size hose you need to drain the filter?
Hi Callum, I can’t 100% recall but I believe it was about 5 or 6mm. Hope this helps. 👍🙂
Straight to the point and clear! Thanks and make more maintenance videos 👍

Thank you for your comment John, but really I was very careful not to get any dirt in the system. 👍😊

Thanks Neil, hope it helped you. 👍🙂
Hello Sir, i have a question about the “Torque” how many Nm you should put when closing the plastic cap ? Cheers
