Hi sort of. Put another filter on and cleaned the connectors as best as possible with carb cleaner. Bled the system and it started on the key. However it drove like shit for 100 mile (very hesitant) and still is first thing in the morn and very clattery. After a min tho it's fine and goes like stink with very little smoke.
Dont think it will be having another filter change while I own it seems to have just caused a load of hastle when it was running A1 before.
