Fuel strainer and fuel filter 306 hdi
#1
Rainbow 
Hello I changed the fuel filter due to being a little black and due for a service on my 306 hdi in the engine. I then had to clean out the fuel strainer in the tank due to cutting out. The strainer was blocked up so give it a good clean out. Also cleaned the diesel tank of the bits while sorting that out.

I did prime the pump and leave for so long a few times. I did hear the air or bubbles clearing up then normal primes on both times fuel filter changed and fuel strainer cleaned out.

The car run ok after but after 60 miles or so. But it started again the car stopped last night. I was there for a few mins and thought I try open the fuel cap. So as soon as I did this the car started up and run perfect all the way home 20 miles. I could hear vacuum noise when I open the cap to.

The car might run ok now but unsure until I drive about much longer then maybe fuel cap of again who knows.

So I'm thinking did it clear the air out the system, the breather need cleaning or blocked?

Where the breather system located?

Thanks
