guess what last night was crazy and i noticed that the p/n on the
filter is diffrent, i had the arrow in the correct direction.


my rear header pipe was leaking fuel from it and was doing this
before also. hmmmm?


he gave me 0 450 905 264 this is for a 96-97 ahhhhh
my old one 0 450 905 030


off to the auto store for a swap replacment. also the hose he gave me is 12mm
and this is wrong also.


thanks much
Joe
