Jozinobi Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 It seems you have the wrong part number Nic.You say the bottom nut doesnt seem to thread in properly which means its the wrong thread type/length/size, the slight variation in part number could be that difference if everything else to do with the fuel filter assembly (bracket, threads and fixings) are sound.Best wait til Jay or someone who had a similar problem give more useful advice.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jozinobi Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Someone should be on to clear this up later mate, hopefully Jay as he has access to the part numbers and what they are for.Be patient Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G14 NZA Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 23300 19495 is listed on the EPC as being for a UK 4efe EP91. Although a 19395 is listed as fitting all JAP 4E engines so should fit your car as well.HTHMark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
