Just followed this thanks heaps ! For anyone wondering, the fuel line remover is 5/16th if you’re like me and used the 3/4 and couldn’t get the line off 😂😂
After doing this by this video, my real world experience advice: Get the TOP connector off FIRST! The lower connection which is the "IN" connection will just run fuel out until the entire fuel tank drains! It will NOT stop. So get the top loose and then take the 10mm bolt out, then do the lower connector.
Changed mine last year on my 98 mk2 project and it looked like it had never been changed.... bolt in the clamped bit of metal sheered off instantly (like cheese) :/ so had to remove the bracket completely to drill out the remnants of the bolt on my bench
First of all thank you for great videos. I have a problem and i need your help. I changed fuel pump and fuel filter on my NB. When i put ignition i don't here the pump priming at all and i try to start the car and the engine crank not starting and then suddenly like explosion and I'm getting leak from fuel filter area. Do you think it can be clugged injectors? Or bad fuel pressure regulator?
I'm having a really difficult time trying to remove my fuel line off from the fuel filter. I broke off the both side of the tabs on the retainers and still no budge. 😢
@Project380 Yes, I did. It was stuck because the corrosion was so bad that the seals and o ring from the fuel line connector bind itself to the fuel filter. Luckily, all I had to do was buy new fuel line connectors, take off the new seals, and pop it back onto the old fuel line.
Perfect. Very concise. I watched another video where the gentleman spent 25 minutes talking to give me the same information you did in less than 5.
im here to give you just the info you need. dont you just hate the videos you have to skip most of just to find the info you need

Take your fuel filter off and check it flows. If not it could be a big air lock
Hey so will all of your fuel drain out if you just let it sit there for a while?
not all of it, if you keep the fuel cap on it should stop after a while
Can you put the caught fuel back in the car?
you can, as long as the container you are draining it into is very clean
Could you tell me what year this Miata is please? Thank you in advance!
this is a 2004 svt

have you de-pressurised the system?
@Project380 Yes, I did.
