How to replace diesel fuel filter "85 300 turbo

Hi--

So my 1985 300 turbo is still running rough at idle actually studders a bit on and off. So I was thinking I'd replace the fuel filters if I can get a diagram to where they all are.

Anyone ???

Thanks

They are on the drivers side of the engine, one is a small plastic one along the lower side of the engine, has a hose going into one end, then a short piece of hose into the assembly with the little hand pump on it. The secondary (main) filter looks like an American car oil filter, its a canister on an aluminum holder behind the power steering pump. You have to loosen the bolt on top of that mount to get it off. Be careful as the assembly is aluminum and can crack if you tighten it too hard. There is also a small copper crush washer under it that needs to be replaced at the same time or it will leak under the bolt.
