Fuel Filter: Service and Repair

Fuel Filter Replacement

The fuel filter should be replaced whenever the fuel pressure drops below the specified value (330 - 382 kPa, 3.4 - 3.9 kgf/sq.cm, 48 - 56 psi) after making sure that the fuel pump and the fuel pressure regulator are OK.

1. Remove the fuel pump.





2. Remove the fuel filter (A).
3. Check these items before installing the fuel tank unit:
- When connecting the wire harness, make sure the connection is secure and the terminal (B) is firmly locked into place.
- Do not push the lower part of the suction filter (C).
- When installing the fuel gauge sending unit (D), make sure the connection is secure and the connector is firmly locked into place. Be careful not to bend or twist it excessively.

4. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal with a new base gasket. When installing the fuel tank unit, align the marks on the unit and the fuel tank.
