    Any tips for changing fuel filter in hilux 03??, is behind the air filter and bit tight, looks like the housing needs to be removed but do i need to disconnect the fuel lines and take out the whole piece? or just unscrew the housing and change filter in it..like the tractor one and leave fuel lines alone? Any info welcome.

    LC here myself but I imagine they are pretty similar. I reckon just unscrew the bottom of the housing, leave the fuel lines alone. You could maybe take the top of off the air filter to gove yourself more room. Don't forget to open the fuel cap when you are bleeding it. Might get more info if you post on motors 4x4 page.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Have the same jeep myself , if you take the top off the air filter you should be able to work on it and you will also be able to take the 2 bolts that holds the filter houseing on off and you will be able to work on it easier .
    I get a lot of my parts for that jeep on line off www.milneroffroad.com you will get parts there a lot cheaper
