1. Remove the fuel tank filler cap.
2. Open the air bleed valve on top of the fuel manager/filter in order to release any of the pressure in the fuel supply system.



3. Turn the locking ring in a counterclockwise direction. If unable to turn by hand, use a strap wrench (oil filter type) in order to break the element nut loose.



4. Remove the filter by pulling straight up and out of the filter assembly. It is not necessary to drain the fuel from the filter assembly to change the filter element since the fuel will remain in the filter assemblys cavity.

Important: Make sure that the mating surface between the element assembly and the filter assembly is clean before installation.

1. Install the new filter by aligning the widest key slot located under the element assembly cap with the widest key in the header assembly.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.




2. Push the element in a downwards direction until the mating surfaces make contact.
3. Install the element nut.

Tighten
Tighten the locking ring securely by hand.

4. Reinstall the fuel tank filler cap.
5. Bleed the air from the fuel manager/filter. Refer to Fuel Feed Pipe and Return Pipe Purging .
