Wow -- great job. What a placement for the fuel filter, so much labor (or relative expertise) to reach. Am I overreacting that this seems like bad design, or are all engines of this type similar in terms of this particular component? Enjoyable watching you deal with it so competently.

You make a good point. It's a bit harder than it should be, but it's doable by someone with moderate mechanical skills. I hope I didn't make it look to hard! But then again, if it looks too easy then someone who shouldn't be doing it might try and get stuck or do something wrong.
