Installation Notes

  1. Turn off the engine and shut off the fuel supply valve.
  2. Place a rag or container under the old filter to catch any fuel spillage.
  3. Loosen the hose clamps on both sides of the existing fuel filter.
  4. Carefully remove the old filter, noting the direction of the fuel flow arrow printed on its housing.
  5. Install the new filter, ensuring the flow arrow points in the same direction (towards the engine).
  6. Securely tighten the hose clamps on the new filter.
  7. Turn the fuel supply back on and check for any leaks around the connections before starting the engine.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

How do I know if this filter fits my engine?

Fitment is based on your engine's serial number, not just its model or year. Please compare your serial number to the ranges listed in the "Engine & Model Compatibility" table to ensure a perfect match.

What are the signs of a clogged fuel filter?

Common symptoms include the engine sputtering or running rough, a noticeable loss of power, difficulty starting, or stalling at low speeds. These issues occur because the engine isn't receiving enough fuel.

How often should this fuel filter be replaced?

As a best practice, replace your inline fuel filter annually or every 100 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Always consult your engine's service manual for the recommended maintenance schedule.

What is the arrow on the filter housing for?

The arrow indicates the direction of fuel flow. It must point from the fuel tank towards the engine for the filter to function correctly. Installing it backward can restrict fuel flow and damage the engine.

Can I clean and reuse this filter?

No, this is a disposable inline filter. It is designed to be replaced, not cleaned. Attempting to clean it can damage the filter media and fail to remove trapped contaminants.

Is there a difference installing this on an EFI vs. a carbureted engine?

The basic installation process is the same for both. However, EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) systems are often more sensitive to fuel contamination and pressure, making regular filter changes even more critical for optimal performance.

OEM vs. Aftermarket?

This listing is an aftermarket replacement (not OEM). Built to OEM-level specifications with comparable materials. Manufactured in an ISO 9002 facility, batch-inspected for consistency.
