Replacing Fuel Filter

Loss of power under heavy load could indicate fuel filter plugging. To replace filter:

1. Loosen bleed plug (top, left side of filter base) and remove drain plug (bottom, left side of filter base). Drain fuel from filter.

2. With fuel filter (A) held firmly against base, lift up on top retaining spring and pull down on bottom retaining spring. Pull fuel filter off guide pins of fuel filter base and discard filter.

3. Install fuel filter onto guide pins on fuel filter base. Hold filter firmly against base.

4. Secure bottom retaining spring first, then secure top retaining spring.

5. Install drain plug. Tighten bleed plug and drain plug securely. Do not overtighten.

6. Open fuel shut-off valve and bleed fuel system. (See Bleed Fuel System, in this section.)
