Changed over both fuel filters on the weekend.
Inline between tank filter was a pain to change with limited space and remember... not to lay under the filter when changing unless you want a diesel shower.
Engine bay filter was on so tight i need a filter strap to remove it. shouldnt it be hand tight only.
Any way curiosity go the better of me so opened them up with a grinder. Yes i was prepared for a posible fire!
I unrolled the inline filter which was so blocked it was black like a used oil filter.
The engine bay filter was only half as bad. I was suprised at how many metres of filter material they squeeze in
Car, 152K has always been serviced by toyota so "hasnt" been neglected. has also had their "fuel treatments" etc added
Seems to be quieter and smoother now with clean filters
