good writeup, for everyone else out there, always use new copper washers on the fuel filter when available, if your new filter doesn't come with them you can re-anneal the old ones be heating them until red with a butane torch (or your cooker's gas hob!) than dunking them into water, brings them up all shiny, malleable and new again! Also, always check very carefully for leaks with the engine running, the slightest leak could let fuel drip or spray onto the hot manifold, with obvious consequences!
