A bit of confusion going on with what fuel filter is supposed to fit. All the online indications are that it is a spin-on cannister type filter, that's certainly not the case on my m/home!
It's a plastic casing with a screw-on top, an electrical connector on top and two fast-fit type fuel line connectors...could be more gubbins but with fading light and the air filter housing in the way it's difficult to tell just now.
To me, it looks just the like the UFI fuel filter assemblies fitted to the X250 Fiats and others.
Despite being charged for a fuel filter change during a service the part number is for a spin on filter which most definately isn't fitted to mine...someone's ears are going to be bleeding tomorrow!
For now I'm keen to get the filter changed, probably best to source a new filter body and the Blueprint tool too.
*Anyone know if some 2.8's of my vintage were fitted with the plastic filter assemblies rather than the cannister type filter?
*None of the plastic assemblies listed on ebay say they fit the 2.8's, can anyone provide part numbers taken from a X250 assembly...I can then go ahead and order a replacement if they match the numbers on mine
* Replacement filter assemblies contain the filter? - don't want to find I haven't got all I need.
Any advice gratefully received!
Thanks, David
