there are 2 different kinds of filter housing one is a twist lock and i think the other is bolted
if you have the twist lock housing make sure you tighted well or you will have high pressure fuel all over the engine

If you have the twist one, which I believe is Bosch, then use a spanner and don't be tempted to actually twist it off as chances are, you'll snap one of the fuel pipes off the top :wink:
Use a magnet as well to clear any metal particles out of the housing
