How did he get the canister out without taking out the axle???
I'm not sure, I was helping him install his engine and we were discussing his new fuel set up. I looked at the new filters but that was it.

A 10 mm universal and a 10 extension and you can hit the two bolts from the back,
Awww yeah!! From the back!!



Seriously. This is an EASY job. Something EVERY FD owner should know how to do..



And for the relocation.. Put it where-the-****-ever you want. Just somewhere easier to get to than where it is now.

Here's the how-to link with pics

But relocation is the best answer and gives you the will to change the filter at recommended intervals---AND if you use anodized components and sexy AN connectors, you can look VERY cool also.



Suggestion to think about: Relocate the filter outside the engine bay----less chance of fire======> LEARN NOT TO BURN
