BenW16 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 how often do you need to change aswell? Link to post Share on other sites
Guest couzens Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 Probably once in life of the car. Mind u I think the hayes manual say every 40,000 miles, but most people never do due to the clean fuel in the UK. If u lived in Italy perhaps, it would be a different matter!!

jcorallo 0 Posted March 15, 2004 Report Share Posted March 15, 2004 yeah - I found the carrier OK - it was just two big 17mm nuts. Easy.The hardest bit for me was the rusted pipe clips. You have to be Be real careful not to cause a spark when cutting them off.... as everything (including you) will be full of petrol by that point....!Jules Link to post Share on other sites
