Replacing the fuel filter on engines with a fuel injection system (40,000 km / 24 months)

Location of inlet and outlet hoses and fuel filter mounting screw

Warning! Gasoline is extremely flammable and explosive, so care must be taken when working on any part of the fuel system.

Attention! Work on the fuel system must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, for which all windows and doors can be opened to create a draft.

Attention! When working on the fuel system, keep cleanliness, as dirt entering the channels of the fuel system can block them, which will disrupt the normal operation of the engine.

1. Remove the ground wire from the battery and place an appropriate container under the fuel filter.

2. Relieve pressure in the fuel system.

3. Using clamps, pinch the fuel hoses on both sides of the fuel filter, then loosen the clamps and remove the hoses from the fuel filter.

4. Mark the location of the arrow on the fuel filter housing indicating the direction of fuel flow.

5. Unscrew the screw securing the fuel filter clip, open the clip with a screwdriver and remove the fuel filter (see fig. Location of inlet and outlet hoses and fuel filter mounting screw).


6. Remove the rubber gasket from the old fuel filter and install it on the new filter.

7. Install new fuel filter and secure with screw. When installing, follow the arrow on the filter housing.

8. Connect the fuel hoses to the fuel filter and secure them with clamps.

9. Start the engine and check the fuel system for leaks. If there are fuel leaks, shut off the engine immediately and repair the cause of the leak.
