just changed my....
fuel filter. old one looked like it hadnt been changed in years.cant half feel the difference.much more responsive.
If anyone hasnt changed theres yet,i recommend you do.Only takes a matter of 10 mins.
I was emptying the fuel that was in the old one and it was black rotten and full of shit.
p.s has anyone noticed how much optimax stinks compared to normal u/leaded. been in the shower and i can still smell it on my hands

It Wasnt Me!
You wonder why they get left out on a service, for all they cost and take to fit too! Is it becuase its hidden under the rear end u think? ive had my RS turbo 4yrs and its done about 1000 miles and had 2 filters!

Mine too had full history, amazing how some of the parts even fitted a cossie when I checked part numbers.
Was owned by a guy from Bristol street motors, receipts were for nearly every ford made, ie the history was a load of crap.
I don't ever take any notice of history anyway so was not bothered, just nice to know there are people like that out there.

Super Unleaded has more benzine in it, that's what stinks. And that's what's really bad for your health, so don't breath the vapour. People who work at petrol stations get cancer, particularly Lukemia more often, it's the smelly stuff that causes it.

28/030 is absolutely ample, delivers 17.5 amps continuous, and will go in blue connector, but don't use connectors solder and heat wrap then tape, otherwise moisture WILL get in.
It is easy to get the washers to seal, they go hard with age so just reanneal them by heating to cherry red with blow torch then drop in old oil, this will make them nice and soft again.
PLEASE DON'T HEAT UNDER THE CAR!!
