steve_starlet_glanza Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Bought a new fuel filter and the pipes are correct but the locator for fuel line on top is wrong size and angle and the bracket where it bolts to bulkhead is too wide, i have ordered a blueprint one now wondered which people have been buying and if they have just fitted those filters?

Steve GT Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 i just bought a standard toyota one from TM-Developments and it fitted no probs straight awaywhat fuel filter did you buy for it to be wrong and where did you get it from? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Genuine Toyota all the way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 have to agree ^^^ you cant go wrong with genuine parts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve_starlet_glanza Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 local motor factors 1st one, and the bracket was wrong and was welded to filter so couldnt swap it, got a blueprint filter and wouldnt seal turns out the inlet hole is 2mm bigger than standard, so its toyota all the way for me now! be good at swapping these soon lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Revo Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I found some after market had a smaller outlet hole and gave less power.In oz Ryco brand made in Israel worked fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Asad Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I'd go for genuine, also you don't know the quality of the filter element atlest you know where you stand with the genuine ones = the best! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve_starlet_glanza Posted August 12, 2010 Author Share Posted August 12, 2010 Gone for genuine not cheapest option but ah well, that filter in picture has no peice on it where the fuel pipe locates in to stop the pipe turning and cracking the bolt off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 better to pay a bit more for genuine though mateyas the saying goes and in this case proves do it cheap do it twice Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted August 13, 2010 Share Posted August 13, 2010 im still confused about filters. the one i took of ages ago had a bracket fixed to it and i bought a new one and it didnts but i dunno if its because it used to be a sportif if the fittins are different. cable ties to the rescue ha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve_starlet_glanza Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 the blueprint one i bought you had to swap the bracket of the old one, just bought toyota one and comes with bracket although still dont think its the same as whats come off even tho part number same the inlet hole is still bigger so see if it seals later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
