Easiest way to tell is that fuel filter should be small white & plastic & look very similar to the one you changed in the rear, the vapor separator is black. My 1991 Brumby has 2 as well, so fair chance your car might.
Don't feel stupid asking a question that's why we're all on here.

Haha, I had sheets, Paper and towels from the op-shop.

Ok.. yeah the part I disconnected hoses from was definitely the Vapour separator. Could this become blocked? Ill have a hunt for a second fuel filter but I haven't noticed one yet.

Also, regarding getting out the wheel bearings.. I dont have a soft face hammer or a vice - can I use the puller?
