Not quite as nice outside today, but the whisper of a bit of sunshine, so I had a quick lunch and went out to change the filter and water bowl on the 1ZHR.
Although we have never yet suffered with any water on this engine, I wanted a bigger reservoir so I could see it without the distortions of the smaller glass bowl, which has internal ribs moulded into its bowl.
Despite my taking some care over removing the old filter, it came away with a jerk and I splashed diesel over the chassis, but not too much, the drain container got most of it.
Old filter and bowl:
New filter and bowl:
Bled it and that was that. There was some very fine rust particles in the bottom of the old filter, probably from the tank, but no water at all.
Couldn't run it as the offices above me had their windows open, and although Leanne would close them if I asked, I don't need to run it right now.
