Diesel fuel filter
Good evening I have just removed the fuel filter from a diesel ,and there are two rubber washers on the centre spigot of the head. One is a flat sided washer the other is a taper sided washer is this correct ? The filter make is Delphi.

I only recall one rubber washer (flat)... Awaiting someone who's done it more than once to confirm...

Could be that the old O ring wasn't removed when the filter was last changed?
