2 micron is bacteria level

(As in width...Some bacteria can be pretty long...

Use factory fuel cooler line. Comes with stone guard and a hand primer..... Although it is redundant in a 2.2

Can you elaborate why it's redundant in a 2.2 please?

The 2.2 has an electric lift pump in the tank. To prime, all you have to do is turn the key to 'run' and let it pump the fuel lines for a bit.

As Beery said, 2.2 has a lift pump. Don't really need the hand primer

...but is a second filter on 2.2 redundant? Has anyone mounted one in a less vulnerable position under the bonnet?
