I’ve got so used to using grips for this job, I’ve never bought a set of fuel hose release pliers. However, this type of connector is used on so much more than just fuel filters on modern cars that I think I shall invest soon (I really ought to practice what I preach, lol). If you’re just starting out, I’d defo recommend investing in a pair of these.

Very clear and well constructed guide! I noticed my Saab was struggling a bit at lower rpms, city traffic especially. Had some starting issues too. Even though I don't have much experience working on cars, I like fixing things myself and something like this really shows that it's accessible for anyone if you put your mind to it and have a good tutorial! The old fuel filter seemed very hard to blow air through once removed and was pretty clogged. Car starts and runs much smoother now (especially low rpm) Thanks for the guides, this channel is great for 9-3 owners!

Thanks for that. Spent ages looking around the engine bay looking... that's where I usually find them.

@CycloneCyd 5 лет назад

Many thanks to Son Mai (see below) for putting us onto this. I've researched this and come to a conclusion. It turns out that while UK & Euro cars had an external fuel filter from 2004MY on, NAS cars continued with the in-tank filter. This further clears up confusion I see on various forums when people ask about the fuel filter and get conflicting advice about it's location. I've got two screen shots of WIS for NAS and Euro cars showing the difference. Unfortunately I cannot attach them here, so if you go to 'community posts' I'll put them there for all to see. Bearing in mind my stripdown of a 100,000 mile fuel filter, I would suggest (at this time) that anyone with a NAS 9-3 considers changing the in-tank filter before the car reaches 100,000 miles. Alternatively drop the tank, remove the filter and fit an in-line filter near the tank that can be changed easily (use the same filter in this video). Apparently there is a YT video of dropping the tank and changing the in-tank filter, but I cannot find it atm. I'll post a link when I do.

@fullspeedjanne Год назад

Great video as always! Easy to follow and always on the spot! Thanks a lot. About changing the fuel filter: I think the most difficult part is to detach the lines from the filter. If no proper pliers can be used it might be difficult as the clamps can be damaged. I found an easy way to create a tool: just use a 4mm or so steel wire and bend it. Worked well! It is also quite important to release the fuel pressure before removing the lines. I did this before I woke the car up after winter...

Awesome. I take it you're a new DIYer (at least for the fuel filter). In all seriousness, buy yourself a proper filter unclipping tool rather than using my bodge method. I bought one recently and wish I'd done so years ago. They are dead cheap and if you look after them they'll last a lifetime.

I gave them a quick try out on a spare injector and they arfe dead easy to use. I'll do a video in the summer. Spray some carb cleaner into an aerosol lid and soak the ends of the injectors for 10-15 minutes before using this.

Hello! Nice video. Just one question. When you unplugg the Fuel filter are all the fuel coming out from the tank and empty the tank? Or is there Some sort of blocking thing thats stop all the fuel from coming out?

@CycloneCyd 3 года назад

No that shouldn't be a problem. The filter connections are higher than the bottom of the tank so the syphoning effect will pull fuel in the line back into the tank rather than trying to drain it. If you think about it and it did what you suggest, then that would have been pretty poor Engineering from the Senior Engineer responsible for the fuel system❗ On forward projects I've been on in my career, there has always been a Service Team that look at just these sort of issues during prototype build phases. Good on you for asking the question though. 👍

Wonder if you’ve ever looked at it like this… Almost 1000 views…. If an average of 50% of those who viewed went on to change their own fuel filter instead of paying a mechanic an average of £50, a fair guess would be £25,000 saved?
