How often should I clean the filter element?

The cleaning interval depends on fuel quality and operating conditions. Inspect the filter regularly and clean it when you notice a buildup of debris. A drop in fuel pressure can also indicate a clogged filter.

What is the filter element made of?

The filter element is made from stainless steel. This allows you to clean it for reuse, unlike paper filters that must be replaced. Clean it with solvent or backflush with compressed air.

What size are the inlet and outlet fittings?

The inlet and outlet ports are -6AN. This is a common size for aftermarket fuel systems. Be sure to use compatible fittings and hose when installing.
