Hi there, I'm going to reveal my lack of technical knowledge now but I would like some help if anyone can offer it.
I have a Malpassi fuel regulator on my car. I have no idea how old the fuel filter is in there, so I've decided I'm going to change it so that I know. There's a pic of the top of unit below...
I can't find any advice online about how to go about changing the filter. I can't find any reference at all to changing the filters and I also can't find any examples of a Malpassi filter king with this many bolts around the edge - they all seem to have just four. I don't want to go in with a hasty spanner and undo all those bolts only to find that's not how you get to the filter, but I can't see any other way of doing it. Does anybody know anything about this particular unit and the means of changing the filter?
I diddled about with something underneath at the weekend and found myself with a very wet petrolly hand, so I decided not to be hasty and I did it back up again. I have a history of assuming I know how things will work only to find I've made a fundamental mistake. I assume an outpouring of petrol is inevitable when opening one of these up but again any advice about accessing and changing the filter would be most welcome so I don't undo the wrong thing.
Cheers,
