Replacement
Attention:
- Do not smoke while working on the fuel system.
- Keep open flames away from the workplace.
- When replacing the fuel filter, be careful to keep it away from the battery terminals and other tools.
The fuel filter must be replaced if the fuel pressure drops below the specified value.
- Engines D14A3, D14A4, D15Z4, D15Z5: 226-275 kPa (2.3-2.8 kg/cm2).
- Engines D16Y4, D16Y9: 275-324 kPa (2.7-3.2 kg/cm2).

2. Place wipes under and around the fuel filter.
3. Relieve fuel pressure.
4. Unscrew the special bolt and remove the fuel pipes using a wrench as shown in the figure.
