Default Quick question please...

Does a sytec fuel filter have an inlet and an outlet or does it not matter which way round it goes?

Thanks

Im pretty sure it does have inlet n outlet, not sure its critical to use them as such though.



Does it look like that one or is it an anodised one?

Yep I have an anodised one so there's no obvious markings to see which end is which! I've used the red end near the sytec writing as the I let and then the blue end as the outlet, kind of made sense at the time!

Am i wrong in thinking the anodized ones come apart?
