Fuel filter

Fuel filter


The fuel filter is located in the delivery line between the fuel pump and the fuel rail at the front of the fuel tank on the right-hand side. The fuel filter is protected by a cover.

The filter is used to remove impurities in the fuel and prevent the injectors from clogging up.

The filter contains a paper element with a mean porosity of 5 ยต, followed by a strainer to catch any loose fragments of paper. A support plate fixes the position of the filter in the metal housing. The efficiency of the filter is dependent on how clean the fuel is.
