Citroen XM Forum

Iv'e recently put new plugs in and since then it's got a slight missfire & hesitation on pulling away, so i bought a new feul filter , for process of elimination,

But where is the bloody thing ?? the new filter it'self is hudge !!!, but cannot find where it is,

Also i new set of HT leads tomorrow,

Any suggegtions ??

Hi

The filter is on top of the o/s of the rear subframe, just in front of the rear wheel, you will need to jack the back of the car and look carefully.

If the misfire happened after fitting plugs I would suspect something either with the plugs or coils or leads.

I agree. A fuel filter is hardly ever to blame for a fault like this. Plugs, coil pack, leads. likely candidates. After all you changed the plugs (how were they BTW?). Remember, if it ain't bust don't fix it.... and: if you go looking for trouble, you will find it: or it will find you
