I ran diesel purge through the 85 300CD, but when I attempted to change the main fuel filter I couldn't tighten the filter more than halfway up the threaded bolt in the filter housing. I assume that the threads on the bolt are butchered, although visually they looked normal. I tried a couple filters but the same problem - wouldn't tighten past a certain point. :((
So what is this bolt called and is it dealer only? Does anyone have the part number? Andrew 1985 300CD 1983 300TD -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
