Before you drive the car again please, please, please remove that fuel filter.

Those glass or plastic filters will not withstand the heat directly above an engine and will split, crack or leak sooner or later spraying fuel under pressure onto the top of a very hot engine.

There is really no need to have a filter under the bonnet. Keep it at the rear of the car away from any heat and vibration. If you really insist on one under the bonnet then get a Filter king filter housing and mount it firmly on the bulkhead.

Good luck with the cooling system.

Cheers

Craig.
