4bd1 county oil and fuel filter different to perentie?

Awesome haha thought that's what you ment I didn't want to assume anything wrong though. can't wait to give it a go and see if it makes a difference regardless if I do notice a difference or not its good to no your getting clean fuel.
Thanks for all the help

Not sure if it is mentioned but the oil filter has its own drain. You want to take that off and let it drain before changing the filter or you will make a huge mess.

The sump has a Fumoto valve on it.

I have found that there is no need to open anything to bleed the fuel system - just pump until it feels solid, then another dozen or so pumps. I find that it will start after a few turns as long as the battery is good without cracking injector lines.

Yeah I did notice that when crawling around underneath. love the the up side down filter makes so much seance for civilised oil changes.

IF its just a filter change I do the same thing, however, it primes up easier and faster if you crack the bleeder nipple. This is especially true if you have a leaking primer pump.

I replaced the primer pump on mine when I got the injectors overhauled last year!

I did not do that personally, but the mechanic who pulled the injectors and sent them off for rebuild did. I don't know where he got the primer pump from, I assume, the same place that overhauled the injectors - I can't remember the name, but I think they are in Wagga.

Maybe you could help me with something is this the filter you use in your cartridge filter I'll attach a photo. I just changed the oil, the 0 ring that comes with the filter that sits on the base off the outer shell of the cartridge seems a bit small not shore if it just stretches out a bit as you tighten it down. I guess if no oil comes out its good but I wasn't shore if I should have put the old O ring back on instead if the new one was wrong. it also looked like some one had secured the old O ring down with some kind of joint compound. Can anyone tell me if this is common practice
Thanks
