Fuel Filter if it hasn't been done.
And check the cam tensioners during the cambelt service - worth taking the rocker covers off.

Thats mean't to bit a sod of a job isn't it?

I wouldn't say so as long as you're on a ramp or have tall axle stands

Forgot the fuel filter, i did mine took about 45 mins on a ramp. Mine was dated 2001 which was proably the original one, i cut it half and it was full of crap.

Defo fuel filter

Got to drop the tank slightly to make it easier.

But as said, probably hasn't been done before!

the clamp is made of plastic iirc the captive nut spun on mine. what a pain in the arse!! worth doing though

thanks for that ! wot about maf and new d/vs ? im planning on taking the car off road for abit so im gonna try and give it a complete overhaul thanks for the sdvise so far.

Can tell you a very expensive story about fuel filters. I would change it.

MAF
N75 valve

I had the fuel filter changed on Helen's... assuming its under the rear driverside wheel arch then it took my pal 15 mins or so to change it since ours was pi55ing out fuel.
spark plugs?
