Not much if you do it this way. But remember you are working with Petrol !!!!!!!

NO SMOKING OR SPARKS !!

Would that lean the car out for a little bit of time doing that ?

[Ralph Wiggum]

it wouldnt lean it out anymore than running out of fuel....i wouldnt be too concerned about the 20 seconds it takes to drain the fuel rail with the engine running.....

f-wolf,

So is there any difference between cheap, medium and expensive fuel filters? and what one did u get

Oh and is the fuel pimp riveted to the body? or does it slide out once the two fuel lines are unplugged?

Waiting on the Spark plugs to come in. I'm not going to be doing all of these every service, but I’ve just brought the car and need some pace of mind before I go get the thing tuned, and than its no looking back.

Just change my filter today and what a difference it made.

I was havin fuel delivery issues and the car was leaning out but I only just bought the car and its got custom tune, 60psi injectors, front mount, exhaust and I thought it may have been the tune or the fuel pump.

Best $35 I ever spent and highly reccomended.
