| New filter element and wrench. |
Method
 |
| The filter. |
- Pre-prepare the filter element by smearing a small amount of clean engine oil on the seal.
- Use the oil filter wrench to remove the old element. Keep this as level as possible to minimise fuel spillage and discard the fuel in the filter. The filter should unscrew fairly easily - if it seems to need a lot of force, check that the wrench hasn't bound on a fitting behind the filter.
- Screw in the new filter making it hand-tight.
- The fuel lines will need to be bled of air before the engine can be started.
