Introduction
We work with gasoline so goggles and gloves are strongly recommended. No source of spark or heat of course. Do this operation in a well-ventilated area.
Parts
-
-
The fuel filter is located near the left rear wheel
-
you have to go under the car to replace it
-
-
-
The filter is normally held in place by a plastic strap. This strap is often broken: expect, as is the case here, to find a plastic collar (cable tie) instead.
-
cut the necklace using wire cutters
-
-
-
The filter has a mounting direction that must be respected.
-
it is indicated by an arrow on the old filter
-
it can be materialized by an arrow on the tank
-
the new filter will most likely have an arrow too
-
-
-
Recover the plastic caps on the new filter
-
provide a collection container for any gasoline that will leak
-
-
-
press the colored tabs on the plug and pull to disconnect (provide the container for the gasoline that will leak)
-
The fuel system is under pressure. It is not a high pressure (around 3 bars) but be aware that fuel will spray when you disconnect (gloves and goggles recommended).
-
immediately plug the filter outlet
-
do the same for the other side
-
-
-
empty the contents of the filter into the bin (remove the cap if you put one in as I did in the previous step)
-
We will take everything to the recycling center for recycling.
-
-
-
present the filter correctly
-
connect the inlet hose
-
and the outlet hose
-
You should hear a "click".

-
install a new collar

no need to tighten too much, we just want to keep the filter in place
