    hi all....

    im having issues with air bubbles in the fuel line

    ive been having a fiddle this morning to try and fix it but i was unsuccessful

    the bubbles are appearing as the fuel leaves the diesel filter...

    ive taken it off put it back on bled the system etc but no joy

    update...

    found out its this connector causing the problem



    now i rang euro car care and i have to buy the 2 fuel lines at £25 as the connector doesnt come separate

    also my local breakers are lazy and just replied with 'no parts in stock' even to they have half a dozen 1.5d saxos...

    does anyone have one kicking about?

    search local scrappies they can be little gold mines at times.
