Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the fuel line from the existing filter and relieve any pressure in the system. Have a rag ready to catch residual fuel.
2. Remove the old fuel filter assembly by loosening the mounting bracket or clamps securing it to the engine.
3. Inspect the fuel lines for cracks, wear, or damage, and replace if necessary.
4. Position the new fuel filter assembly in the same orientation as the original, ensuring the fuel flow direction arrow (if present) points toward the engine.
5. Secure the filter with the mounting bracket or clamps, ensuring it is firmly in place.
6. Reconnect the fuel lines to the inlet and outlet fittings on the new filter. Ensure connections are tight to prevent leaks.
7. Prime the fuel system by pumping the primer bulb until it becomes firm and fuel flows through the filter.
8. Start the engine and check for fuel leaks around the filter connections. Tighten fittings if needed.
9. Allow the engine to run for a few minutes to ensure proper fuel flow and stable operation.
