Fuel Filter: Description and Operation

FUEL FILTER




There are two different types of fuel filters inside fuel tank, forming integral part of the fuel pump. The filter at the inlet of the fuel pump is a mesh type which removes relatively large particles in the fuel before it enters the pump. The filter at the outlet of the pump is a pressure resistant cartridge type whose inside filtering element can remove small particles in the pressurized fuel.
