The mother in law brought her Skoda Fabia over last night saying it was smelling of petrol. Had a look and it was peeing out everywhere by the fuel filter. Got a new one from Halfords for a tenner with the trade card and had a look.
I was expecting it to be a real PITA job but the 3 pipes unclipped OK and the mounting screw wasn't seized, swapped it for the new one and tested out out, no leaks!
Had a look at the old one and found a pin prick hole corroded through it at the top, see the bulge?
On the trip trip Halfords in my wife's Zafira I noticed it was lacking power below 2000 revs, bloody EGR valve will be blocked AGAIN!
Cars!
