I decided to change the fuel filter I have read some people have changed there's and not much has happend so was not expecting much.
I was so wrong!
Depressarized the fuel line then undid the hose and fuel pissed out fast lost about 1 liter I was not ready for that, I Knew some would come out but not that much (note to self wear gloves and safey goggle next time!)
Changed filter
Took for test ride I had to look at the dash to see If I was in Sports mode
I had so much more power :D the car is faster, run's smoother and Idle's better.
It feels like a new car I can't belive it.
When I got home after my fun test ride I started to clean up The filter still had alot of petrol in it so I tiped It in my bucket out of the inflow nozzle and it came out black! I was so shocked, had a closer look and it was tiny bits of metal and other junk.
The fuel filter I took off was made in 97 so It probely has not been changed in year's.
If you are unsure of the age of your filter change it NOW!!
