Hi
I wonder if anyone can give me a bit of advice here. I want to change
the fuel filter on my 1997 106 Independence. The configuration of the
couplings to the filter is different to my Haynes book which shows
metal clips. I have tried to lever off the couplings but they don't
want to budge and I don't want to bust anything.
Pictures of the filter are here:

Any advice would be much appreciated.

You need to press the white bit in and pull the pipe off the filter.
The white part is the locking mechanism. Or gently lever the pipe off
whilst pushing the white bit fully in. If it won't come off you are
not pushing it in far enough! To replace just push the pipe on to the
filter until it clicks in place. Test by trying to pull it off
(without pushing the white bit).

Hi,
Thankyou for your description....When you say push the white bit
"in"...by "in" do you mean "towards the filter body" or actually
"compressing it in toward the pipe"...sorry to ask but i also had
problems and find that pushing the white bit toward the filter body
doesnt help..unless i didnt push hard enough(?)

You press it in toward the pipe quite hard. At the same time slide the
pipe off. If it won't come you are not pressing hard enough!
