Nice one ! I have a big lump of ally which is looking worried ....
I have noticed on my car that the two large bolts and washers coming from the seat belt mechanism, under the fuel filter also seem s to get corroded very quickly.
I can just about see this on yours as well.
I am wondering if this could be due to galvanic action as well, due to the frame they fasten down to being aluminum?

![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/04/22/IMG_1834c.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/04/22/IMG_1835.jpg) I've managed to get a replacement fuel filter from Opie Oils (thanks for the tip!), and thought it would be easy to fit, but the pipes do not want to come off the old one on the righthand (off side), or the end fitting on the left side. Before I do irrevocable damage, is there a trick to getting them off, or is brute strength the answer? There isn't much room to get hands and tools in there. Any thoughts from any of you who have done this job would be much appreciated. By the way, I have done a lot of cleaning up in the area - next job will be a mudguard! Thanks.

You need to push the tab to release the pipe fitting, then pull off. I just use a flat bladed screwdriver to push down on the release tab. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2018/02/20/IMG_1844.jpg)

As Roger says and there are full instructions as part of the Fuel Pump Replacement instructions on here: https://www.mtwc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/M3W-5-Speeder-fuel-pump-replacement.pdf. The fuel pipe connectors are a fiddle but they will come off eventually with a bit of wiggling and twisting. A mudguard is definitely a good idea. If you are practical you can make a better and cheaper one than the MMC option from a trailer mudguard.

Done! Fiddly job, but with planenut’s helpful photo everything came apart and went k together easily in the end.
Next time it’ll be an easy task!
She fired up first time, and it would have been so good to go for a spin.
Still, plenty of cleaning to do, and then the mudguard.
Thanks again for all the help in this thread - much appreciated.
