How to renew element(s) of the fuel filter
There are three types of fuel filter element in use:
Attention:
it is important that only the genuine Perkins fuel filter element is used. The use of a wrong element can
damage the fuel injection pump.
The separate element is held between the filter head and the bottom cover (A).
The canister type where the filter element has an internal thread (B2) at the top is fastened to a threaded adaptor (B1)
in the filter head (B).
A fuel filter with a quick release canister (C) has been introduced on certain engines. Some engines are fitted with a
pre-filter of the same type. This filter is fitted next to the main filter, but connected in the fuel system before the fuel
lift pump. Both of the filter elements must be renewed at the same time.
This filter may has one or two filter elements. If two filer elements used, both of them must be renewed at the same
time.
