Order Filter Kit from milners [Oil, Air and Fuel filter] about £15 + delivery
10w/40 engine oil will do.
OIL
Run the engine for a little while to get the oil running. Undo the nut and drain into a BIG bucket as the engine will require 6.5 to 7.5 litres depending on removal of Oil filter.
This running of engine should also loosen the Oil filter a little. Use strap or chain to unwind [oil will still be inside filter so be careful]
Replace new Oil filter by hand after running some new oil around the seal and tighten [once resistance tighten a little further by hand]
Fill back up with oil, monitoring dipstick for level
Discard of oil safely [should be taken down to your local tip for disposal]. Use an old oil botle or one of the empty plastic cans you can buy for this purpose.
FUEL
Have bucket ready to remove Fuel filter.
Disconnect wire to bottom of Filter from connector [normally on the wing]
Remove filter clockwise if remember correctly???[believe same as 3.0 models] using Filter Chain or Strap
After removal of filter, unwind the plastic cap [includes drain tap] using filter chain or strap [be careful not to damage it] and pour diesel into bucket
Screw back onto new Fuel filter after running a little of old diesel around seal using finger, attach filter back to filter housing, remove the Pipe marked out and pump the filter to draw fuel through. Re-attach the line once fuel drawn through. Keep pumping till the pump gets hard
Start engine and keep checking pump once again [engine off].
Dispose of diesel from filter safely
AIR FILTER
Remove Air sensor from side of filter
Remove catches from filter housing [normally three] and lift up the lid carefully. Replace filter lid fasten back up and re-insert sensor.Last edited by Gizmo; 20 December 2005, 20:22.Gaz
