Fuel filters
Problems with the engine may have various causes, one of which is
dirty fuel.
The injection pump may break down if there is water in the system.
Water in the fuel is a result either of condensation caused by an
insufficiently filled tank or by a filler-cap either not being closed
properly or with a damaged seal.
In order to prevent any water infiltration, the fuel runs through two
filters.
- The first filter is on the pipe that joins the tank to the engine, it has
the functions of a water decanter and pre-filter.
- A second filter is integrated into the engine itself, its purpose is to
filter the fuel very finely. For information about maintenance and
replacement, please refer to the engine manual.
Drain by undoing the knurled screw at the base of the decantation
bowl (but not removing it).
Allow to flow into a box till the fuel looks clean.
Carry out this operation several times a year.
Change the pre-filter at least once a year (for access, remove the
bowl).
