Also depending on who your mechanics were mine were all cross threaded as the stock filter is steel and so is the on line nuts. I didn't have a die set so bought an alloy fuel filter and just threaded it on, started the car and nipped it up until it stopped leaking!Mechanics and their ape arms...

But this is only speculating BeardYes this is my opinion. At least till you can determine the quality of the e85 you are buying and also the state of your fuel system (ie residual gunk) Buzkut for my money the large speed flow 10mic units are the go. Competitive price and very large surface area compared to some of the other aftermarket and drop in replacements. They do require the use of an hard-line adaptors though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting/fuel= phone call to shannonsAnd im only using 98 until I upgrade a few things again. Edited 19/05/15 01:37 AM by Bizkets is fat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only running 98 just use one of the drop in 10mic solutions, or just run a stock filter.Shannons won't care if you inform them. Ask me how I know.
