Fitting a 3 point rear seat belt
Hi
I'm looking to fit 3 point seat belts in the rear so my kids can sit in the back with booster seats and be a bit safer than the standard lap belts. 7yrs and 4yrs old so too big for the Britax eclipse which I saw suggested in a previous post worked with a lap belt.
Trouble is I can't find the ...

Fuel gauge stopped working
Hi I have a problem with my fuel gauge.
It seems to be stuck just around the nearly empty orange mark. I don't actually think it's an electrical problem as the rest of the electrics on dash are working (not sure if I should post this in fueling section). The car was sat for a few years and when I ...

Re: Fuelling problem gtx fuel distributor repair recondition
Glad you got it going. :-D
950 to 1000 rpm idle is where it should be, I set mine at 1000 rpm as it seems happier and less rattles.
When changing the fuel filter try and replace the 4 washers on the fuel filter, 2 each end, you may get 1 in the box, 1 end is the same size as a sump plug washer ...

Sorry been a while.
Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

Small leak fixed. Got fresh petrol.
Car now runs.
Need to get a new fuel filter and fit it. I mistook the accumulator for a filter before ...

Fueling issues Gtx. Distributor?
I've changed the title of this thread as it was slightly confused.
I've ended up getting her towed to a local garage where he says I need a new distributor.
Can anyone tell me how much these go for and where should I start looking?

Re: Fuel filter removal gtx
Just a quick thought
Considering the petrol is old and no good am I better off trying to get rid of the old stuff first before putting fresh petrol in?

hi
Sorry for late response, I thought my notifications were set up right to tell me I'd got replies but didn't get any.
Thanks for all the replies! Loads of great info!
Not used to a gtx injection system having only ever owned carburettor models.

Re: Fuel filter removal gtx
Hoping this upload of photo works...
Is this a fuel filter at the back next to the pump or is this part of the pump?
It has fuel going in at top from the electric pump and then going back out at the top (braided hose at front of pic)
Sorry for the bad photo my lens is damaged on my phone.

Re: Fuel filter removal gtx
hi guys thanks for the replies.
I'm not sure if I have this right but is there 2 filters inline.
One is located in engine bay before injection but the other is at the back next to the fuel tank.
So there's fuel tank - then fuel pump - then fuel filter.
I tried to get a replacement at gsf but ...
