Fuel filter

Post by Mauro »

Hi everybody,
after a long silence I am coming to you for help. When I was still working I had my services done by "the best"" and I had peace of mind. Now that I am finally retired and after some not nice experiences, I decided to service my Patrol 4.5E petrol, myself.
But when I try to find out the petrol filter for replacement, I dont find it. I serch on the manuals, but I find only fuel filters for diesel.
Probably there is a non serviceable filter in the fuel tank, but if that is the case, why "the best" have charged me regularly for a "petrol filter"? Can you help me? Thank you in advance
