Blimey that was difficult. Very difficult to access the filter due to cables in the way. The top rubber seal doesn't sit in a recess - it sits on the top of the filter so is difficult to hold in place as the two sections are matched up. The old filter was contaminated with a light brown substance - possibly rusty water. On re fitting a new filter I had to bleed the system in two places - the filter inlet and the fuel pump bleed valve. Initially the engine ran very smoothly, once bled, but, it is now back to the uneven idling that it had before. I suppose I will have to put up with the current position, at least the engine doesn't cut out, and it sounds fine once revved. I might top up the diesel tank and put some more anti bug solution in it, plus some redex to clean the injectors .
