fuel filter advise please

Ian Miller · May 6, 2012

Hi All
Just bought my first Landy , A 1968 series 2a
I'm giving it a bit of a service,Oil change,plugs,filters , points rotor arm etc etc
The only thing I'm not too sure about is changing the in line fuel filter, is it just a case of disconecting the old one and connecting the new one , or is there an issue with air getting into the system??
I would be grateful for any advice
Cheers Ian

Don't think it's a big problem with petrol. Isn't there a lever on the lift pump? (just to prime the carb)

There is a hand primer lever on the underside of the fuel pump, assuming its got the original mechanical pump. So you shouldn't have a problem. Just remember to hold your cigarette in the other hand.

Well he does say he's changed the plugs, points and rotor arm so there's a good chance it's petrol

All you have to do is change the filter and start the engine, simple as that.
