Could anybody help me out with a link to a compatible air filter, and instructions on replacement for my old banger?

Look on ECP, pit your number plate in and select the MANN Filter

If it's the tube shaped one you're meant to turn it 180 degrees and carry on driving.

If you where intending to put a useful video online, would you at least use the right tools !!!!

Never keen on the “any ole tool will do” unless it is an emergency.

Haynes should do a manual for your car or your engine in another car ?

If your's is the 646 engine, which I believe it is, you have a cylindrical filter in a metal housing.
Release the clips, noting the position of the filter before you remove it.
Then remove it, checking to see if one side of the filter is clean (unused).
If clean, you can rotate the filter 180 degrees and reinsert it, having first brushed the filter clean - or preferably used an airline - and also cleaned out the housing of any small debris.
That's it. If both sides of the filter have been used, fit a new filter.
I use a Sharpie to write the mileage on my filter whenever I replace one.

If your's is the 612 series engine, then the filter is in a rectangular housing and cannot be rotated, and will need to be replaced.

Thanks for all the advice, everyone. I'll take a look under the bonnet...
