ZX Vocane TD Fuel Filter Housing

[charlow]

I have a 1994 ZX Volcane TD.
Can anyone tell me what the rotary leaver does that's on the lower part of the plastic fuel filter and what is its normal position?

What type of filter housing is it ? , from memory you should have the perflux (sometimes nicknamed 'tophat') type arrangement.

The only 'control' on this is the drain screw (originally had a plastic pipe on it but these tend to fall off or get thrown out) , and the 'water in fuel' sensor screwed into the back.

A picture would help greatly if possible to determine what you mean

Hi Andy,
The rotary lever is the white one in the picture (from Haynes manual)

Sorry but I can't paste the image, but its on page 3.8, picture 8.8b and its the white knob at quarter too!

I don't have a manual

Hopefully someone else will have a picture (or possibly a picture of the fuel filter housing)

Is it like this one?

[charlow]

No its not like your picture Steve.
I've got a picture on my desktop but can't work out how to display it here.
Can you tell me how to post a picture.
