Can anyone answer some or all of the following questions:
1. If you have fitted one to a GU with the same motor where abouts did you fit it? (pic would be good).
2. Why do the filter housings have two inlets & two outlets (Just to facilitate fitting in different situations?) & does it matter which inlet is used with which outlet?
3. What are the two bolts screwed into the top face of the filter housing for?
4. On the factory fuel filter which is the inlet - firewall side or front of the car side of the housing?
5. The easiest & most accessible spot I have to mount it is on the wheel arch on the passenger side of the vehicle (where the aux battery used to be). Is there any problem extending the fuel lines to the opposite side of the engine bay & back again?
6. Do I need 8mm (5/16ths) or 10mm (3/8ths) hose tails to screw into the housing?
