Unfortunately my Haynes is in the car and my wife's driving it at present. But assuming it's the standard XUD lump then it'll be at the front of the engine to the left. Usually in a black plastic cylinder stylee cannister with four 4mm cap head screws holding the lid on.

Less messy that way! hi m8 do i need to fill the canister with diesel when i put the filter in or does it fill itself when i turn the car over ?? thanks alot for your help :) > >>>> hi there just serviced my car but i don't know where the diesel fuel > >>>> filter is located can anyone please guide me ???

It will fill but it's best to prime the system. On the diesel feed to the filter there will be a bulb (like the ones on blood pressure meautring wotsits [1]) that you can squeeze to pump fuel into the filter. Pump this until it goes hard (ooer Mrs). Crank the engine over. It will probably start then it may die. Repeat the procedure a few times possibly squeezing the bulb whilst cranking the engine if you have an assistant. Eventually you'll get the air out of the system. -- Malc > It will fill but it's best to prime the system. On the diesel feed to > the filter there will be a bulb (like the ones on blood pressure > meautring wotsits [1]) Aargh!! The footnot fairy has struck. That should read "measuring wotsits [1]" [1] Sphygmanometers -- Malc Hi, I totally agree with that. These cars are fit with the latest fuel filter type, in the small, black, cylindric plastic housing. The priming pump allows to fill in the filter with no tools. Upon pressing it a couple of times, you'll hear the air being pulled out of the fuel system. I never missed a priming with my good old '93 205, and still I changed the fuel filter a dozen of times. Regards, -- G.T hi m8 i found the correct thing filter goes in and the primer pump thing there is also a clear pipe hanging down i think its coming from the fuel filter thing its only connected to the engine end other not connected to nothing so i am assuming its some sort of breather pipe or for emtying the diesel out to change filter i dunno wether these cars are good or bad but for £200 with service history and 90k on the clock it must be a steal lol thanks for your help guys you sure know your stuff :) are you clever enough to crack the original radio cassette code ??? cheers >Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >-- >G.T If you go back and read Nigel's post he tells you about that pipe and the drain.

To get to that you'll need to get the instrument panel out which is a bit more complicated I think.

The prescription was OK but the frames fell to pieces in no time. The place I go to now (local shop, Collison's) is more expensive but the frames last for years. I see Tesco are in on the act now. I suppose we will see people wearing "Value" glasses - plain lenses and covered in white and blue stripes ;o) SignatureKeith W Sunbury on Thames (If you can't laugh at life, it ain't worth living) >> Funnily enough I just got a letter from the opticians saying that I >> am due for a sight test (free at my age). > > And coincidentally I'm about to do battle with Specsavers for misprescribing > the pair of glasses I received the other day. <Resists the temptation for a > rant> Yeah, they do that. Four appointments and no valid prescription spelled the limit of my patience with them. >>> Funnily enough I just got a letter from the opticians saying that I >>> am due for a sight test (free at my age). [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Yeah, they do that. Four appointments and no valid prescription > spelled the limit of my patience with them. To be fair they have solved the problem. I now have two pairs of glasses, one distance and one reading and the distance with Reactolite lenses for no extra cost.

Oh jump off your high horse for a minute. It was just a bit of friendly advice. Although all the bits he asked about are in fact answered in Haynes BoLs and bits that he asked about and the group were unable to help him with.

It also says things like assembly is the reverse of disassembly. Or in this case assembly is a case of pushing things back together.
