    Check the bronze filter in the fuel pump after every couple of fuel filter changes as it blocks easily. Symptom a gradual loss of power just after a filter change.Remedy on the rear of the pump is a yoke with incoming and excess return fuel lines with a 17mm bolt .Undo bolt through the union and catch the washer pull all the way out and in the hole behind the bolt is the filter now this is where you have to be sneaky go and raid mums sewing basket and pinch the crochet hook and pull out the filter and clean by blowing with compressed air.reverse procedure then pump the lift pump till bled and away you go.Never admit ever to the hook and keep well stashed because its now a lint filter remova.
    I bled my brakes with new fluid every 12 mths or after going through deep water a job that can be done with mates over a beer cheaper than brakes parts.
