Fuel filter Clamp

Matt86 · Nov 11th, 2013, 12:38

Has anyone got a V40 for a fuel filter clamp? Mine had been broken at some point and held in place with plastic ties...

Also If anyone has a Fuel line hoses for either side of the fuel filter I'd be interested as well

I wouldn's bother getting a 2nd hand fuel filter clamp as the plastic gets very brittle over time. So you can either get a new clamp (Part no. 30865335) from Rufe for £4.70 or use cable ties. The bracket does not come with the bolt (Part no. 987055), which is an extra £1.01!!!!!!!!

I can remove the fuel hoses either side of the filter and if in good condition, I'll let you know

That'll be great if you've got a good set of hoses Gatos.

I'll think about if I want a new clamp for not. I might just use cable ties, Thankfully I've got the bolt still as it's the other side of the clamp broken! Perhaps I'll ebay for it for £1.00! 1p saving :P

Clamp is the right tool, but cable ties will last longer that the cheap crappy volvo plastic... lol

Zip ties have many jobs! They are official brackets & clamps & body stitches of many thoroughbred race cars everywhere.

I zip tied mine on since the bracket has long gone and the one I took off was zip tied on.
