There’s nothing more frustrating in the morning than your commercial vehicle not starting because the diesel filter has emptied overnight - at least partially - but the result is that we manage to get going. The YouTuber shows how to avoid this issue by installing a non-return valve (for example, the Lytivagen, which is the one shown in the video; two pieces cost £11.99 + shipping on Amazon).

This way, you can be sure that the fuel does not flow back, and even if it does, with this type of valve, you can pump fuel into the filter and get the vehicle started as soon as possible.

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
