Title: FUEL FILTER MOUNT HELP
Post by: GTI DAZ on July 02, 2018, 09:29:38 am: Morning all,

Tried replacing my fuel filter at the weekend but the screw is rounded off, does anyone know what length and thread it is so when I finally get it out I can have a new one ready. Dont want to take it before I have to.

thanks in advance.

Post by: pudding on September 15, 2022, 08:58:54 pm: Is that not the pn for the whole tank?

I had a look at mine when I last changed the filter and the clamp is moulded into the tank. All you can do is cut through the lower strap and cable tie it. It’s a really sh1tty design :doh:

Post by: LC5F on September 15, 2022, 10:04:46 pm: Its a mild steel cross head screw.
Carefully drill the through the head till it drops off, rounded out screw will centre the drill bit, you should be able to open the clamp and you are left with 6mm of thread you can grip with vice grips:
