Next time don’t remove the filter secure bracket… remove the hoses first or loosen - I’ll be easier because the filter will not move. That’s what I did and it worked well.. I did removed the clamp first but I had a hard time then I put the secure clamp then I can put more pressure to remove the hoses. But you did great and like the idea of using the stoppers from the new to old filter 👍
My process is the following: detach the hard line going to the engine bay from the retaining clip. Remove the front hose. Unscrew the filter retaining bracket nut so the filter can now move. Now it’s much easier to undo the two back side hoses. Go backward installing the new filter. My 2 cents learned the hard way.
anyone know the diameter of the rubber hose bits on the fuel lines that attach to the filter? 3mm also? My metal fuel lines are fine, but noticed the rubber ends that connect to the filter were dry rotted. So I postponed the install until I get replacement rubber
I am changing my car which is the same car what I’ve done i disconnected the fuse great video very informative on bolt sizes which made it easy simple and clean and also showed how yu had some difficulties every car isn’t the same and every time I go thru different experiences as well keep it up !
its purpose is to flood your air filter box when the membrane of the regulator ruptures, as happened to me after putting "oem brand" Bosch fuel filter, what a headache this little hose caused.....
@@HelpMeDIY it worked at first fine for the first week and then it suddenly stalled on me when I stopped at a red light. I ruled out the fuel pump because there is enough pressure and it's brand new. Any ideas?

That was the factory fuel filter from 2001, it has never been changed 😮😮
+@krustysfunbodegas some people don’t maintain their cars properly 😆
I think mine is original, replacing filter and vacuum line to F connector. Getting misfire, and rough idle.

What size are the clamps for the fuel line?
+@noname-pb9vj don’t remember now, sorry
@@HelpMeDIY no worries
Where do I get clamps from?
+@liots4 the link in the description
@@HelpMeDIY yea I did it taking me to some other clamps real big in yellow I think the link not that nomo
After I replaced the fuel filter I keep hearing sound coming from the fuel filter or the fuel lines
,is it normal ? Pls help
+@Revenger18 I would guess no. Never heard anything like that.
I love that shirt. Need it for USAF Ammo 😂.
+Perry Woodman 😂🍻
Hose clamps seem awkward. I use 3 bolts the same diameter as the inner hose and screw them in.
+Cafe Projections worked well?

+Lee Ghany I like your enthusiasm!
I recently replaced mine, and now, gas doesn't reach the fuel rail?
+Howling Media it should… you didn’t remove the fuse for the fuel pump and forget to put it back did you?
