Saxo-106 Fuel filter - Carl2
I noticed that the plastic strap that holds the fuel filter in place on the wifes saxo has snapped. I have purchased a new one for the grand price of 86p (the quality is reflected in the price). That was the easy bit now it looks to me as though the tank has to be moved to gain access to press the strap into position. If this is the case is there a recognised short cut or alternative. The chap in the parts dept said they usually refit the filter with cable ties. I don,t like the sound of this because I could only see brake or petrol pipes to secure them to.
The plastic strap looks so fragile that I imagine most owners must have this problem at sometime.
