Installation Notes

  1. Shut off the engine and allow it to cool completely. Turn off the fuel supply if a shutoff valve is available.
  2. Place a suitable container or absorbent towels under the existing filter to catch any fuel spillage.
  3. Carefully disconnect the fuel lines from the old filter. Note the direction of the flow arrow on the unit.
  4. Remove the old filter from its mounting bracket. Keep it upright to minimize spills.
  5. Install the new filter into the bracket, making sure the flow arrow points in the correct direction (towards the engine).
  6. Securely reconnect the fuel lines to the new filter.
  7. Prime the fuel system as recommended in your engine's service manual to fill the filter with fuel.
  8. Once primed, start the engine and carefully inspect the filter and all connections for any signs of leaks.

No, this is a disposable, single-use filter. Once it is clogged or has separated a significant amount of water, it must be replaced to ensure proper filtration and fuel flow.
