Fuel Filter: Description and Operation

Fuel Filter:






DESCRIPTION
A steel in-line fuel filter is used in the fuel feed pipe ahead of the fuel injection system. The filter element is made of paper and is designed
to trap particles in the fuel that may damage the fuel injection system.

CONSTRUCTION
The filter housing is constructed to withstand maximum fuel system pressure, exposure to fuel additives, and changes in temperature.
The filter has a quick-connect inlet and a threaded outlet fitting.
The threaded fitting is sealed with a O-ring. There is no service interval for fuel filter replacement. Only replace the fuel filter if it is restricted.
