FUEL FILTER [SKYACTIV-D 1.5]
id0180q2002600
Purpose of Adoption
• Not applicable
Service Point
• For fuel flow prevention when removing the filter, remove the rear seat and disconnect the quick connector connected to the fuel filter from the fuel tank.
• When a new fuel filter is installed, air flows into the fuel system so that the filter paper inside the filter can absorb fuel, which will cause the engine to stall immediately after starting it. However, you can start the engine by performing cranking (approx. 10 s) 2 or 3 times which removes the air.
• If the engine still does not start, perform the “Fuel Line Air Bleed” of the “After Service Precaution” in the Workshop Manual.

Warning
-
• Before servicing the fuel system always follow the procedure “Before Service Precaution” in the Workshop Manual before performing the “Fuel Line Safety Procedure”.
• Be careful when using the SST to install the filter so that the filter coating is not damaged.
• If water does not flow during draining (remaining fuel in fuel tank is low) disconnect the quick release connector as shown in the figure below and inject air into the filter so draining can be done.
