Got to work this morning to a strong smell of petrol, quick look under the car split my trousers and showed a steady drip from aroud the filter, from memory the Haynes Manual recons this is a tricky job and should go to the stealers, anyone changed their own filter/lines as it does not look difficult !!!!! Tips Please.
