Me and my bro's old 1.2's both had one-surely they're a good idea :?:
Especially because they fill up with crap quite easily :idea:

As far as i'm aware none are better than others-it wont affect your performance if thats what you're worried about

Just go pick one up from halfords or motaman. It is the fuel filter your on about isn't it? Not the pump?

they are about ?1.50. easy fit, but put it before the pump not after. in other words, between tank and pump

i am sure theres a filter on the end of the pump intake pipe, or maybe its just my injection, my car has a filter located just in front of the offside rear wheel, so maybe u gud put one there.

I found it! Its inbuilt in the fuel pump! :(

Well I still will replace with the normal one! Never know what dirt was added to the fuel! :)
