So there is no arrow on the side of the filter? Has one end of the filter got a ridge going around the top of it?

No arrow at all . One end is domed and the other end is flat with a lip around it.

Cool, the end with the lip around it will point towards the rear of the car, the smooth end points towards the front. :y:

if in doubt then just switch the ignition on for a few seconds and get a mate to see where the fuel comes out :)

make him wear goggles or summit too :y:

as for the filter take it back and tell them about it, should at least be a sticker on it
