    • Begin by loosening this hose clamp, at the top of the primary filter, nearest the engine.

    • Pull the primary filter up and out of this hose. A small amount of fuel will leak out, consider putting a towel, plastic bag, or other appropriate catch underneath.

    • Now loosen the clamp on the bottom of the primary filter, further from the engine.

    • You will now be able to pull the filter out the rest of the way. The fuel in it will drain out, catch it with towel or something similar.

    • Install the new filter by retracing the steps so far, just backwards.

    • This is a good time to consider replacing the large secondary filter. If you would like guidance on this, see the secondary fuel filter replacement guide.

    • Then, pump the primer pump on the car until the primary filter fills with fuel. It's normal for there to be a small air bubble in the primary filter but it should be mostly clear.

Conclusie

When finished, run the engine to ensure it's been primed properly.
