LHM Filters from GSF?

Post by BonceChops »

Just a quick question.
Do GSF sell the LHM filters for the Xantia?
I said it was a quick one.
I just changed my LHM for the Hydraflush stuff but they did not have filters. I will change them when I put LHM back in. The old ones were a real mess, very clogged up with black stuff.
Thanks,
Neil

If the filters are like those on a BX the advice is simply to wash in petrol. No doubt a soak and a careful brush may help but unless they are split they should be re-useable.
BX tank filters are nylon mouldings, with very fine mesh panels.

Thanks for the replies. I did wash them out in petrol but thought people were recomending replacing them. They were VERY dirty. Car's got 149k miles on her now. I wonder if they have ever been cleaned before. The car feels a little more floaty than before. It has a fault on it - drops very soon after turning engine off, since I changed the LHM it rises up much quicker than before.
