Guest Guests Posted 23/07/08 06:00 AM Share Posted 23/07/08 06:00 AM Fitted a Valvoline filter last night, started her up & ended up dropping about $15 worth of BP98 on the driveway Going to Cov's this afternoon to pick up a Motorcraft one so hopefully that will work!

Double check its tight enough.

Guest Guests Posted 24/07/08 12:34 AM Share Posted 24/07/08 12:34 AM Fitted up the Motorcraft one last night after work & had a little leak. Just loosened the nuts, pushed/twisted the fuel lines in until they felt nice & tight against the inside of the filter then tightened fairly tight... No more leakage Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/36921-fuel-filter-change-highly-recomended/page/5/#findComment-709522 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piece of piss to replace. FastR1Red said: Where is it on the sedan?? I'll do mine as well.Thank ya. BA XTC said: nearly the same place, but near the lhs rear passenger door.. just like the utes - it is on the inner part of the rail... you will need 2 spanners to undo it... takes 5 minutes..cheers.

Repco, Supercheap and Autobarn only have Ryco..Ford has them for $45 but surely theres somewhere else you can get them from cheaper?
