What Is It
5
FUEL FILTER
Fuel is necessary for all engines to make them run, and in accurately measured
amounts. Anything that blocks the flow of fuel can cause poor starting or running
issues.
Despite all the care taken in refining, during storing and delivering of gasoline some
impurities get into the automotive fuel system. Fuel filters remove dirt, rust, water
and other harmful materials from the gasoline before it reaches the carburetor. The
useful life of all filters is limited. During use the filters become clogged and hence
restrict fuel flow if they are not cleaned or replaced according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
A fuel filter is a crucial part of an engine system as it guards your engine from
harmful debris. The fuel filter screens dirt and rust particles from the fuel, keeping
them from entering the engine and causing damage. If debris enters the engine -
even tiny rust particles - it causes needless wear and tear on the engine components
and devastate on the overall system.
Several different types of fuel filters are in use, and some systems contain two or
even more filters. Filters are being located in several places within the fuel system.
TYPES OF FUEL FILTER
1. Fuel Tank Filters and Strainers
A sleeve-type filter of woven Saran is normally
fitted to the end of the fuel pick-up tube inside the
fuel tank This filter prevents sediment, settled at
the bottom of the tank, from entering the fuel line.
It also protects against water contamination by
plugging itself up. If enough water somehow
enters the fuel tank, it accumulates on the
outside of the filter forming a jelly-like mass. If
this situation occurs the filter is required to be
replaced, and except for this, no other
maintenance of the filter is necessary
2. In-line Filters.
Installed in the line between the fuel pump and
carburetor. This protects the carburetor from
contamination but does not protect the fuel
pump. The in-line filter is usually a throw away
plastic or metal container with a pleated paper
element sealed inside. Care should be taken
while installing in-line filters so that gasoline
flows through them in the direction marked by the
arrow on the body. Some in-line filters have a
built-in vapor by-pass system. These filters have
a third nipple that connects a fuel return line back
to the fuel tank.

6
Some automobiles incorporate a sediment bowl
between the fuel pump and carburetor. The bowl
contains a pleated paper, ceramic, fiber, or metal
filter element (strainer), which works like an in-line
filter in cleaning the petrol. Water and other particles
are collected in the bowl and are removed through
periodical cleaning of the filter. When the filter
becomes plugged the engine does not produce its
usual power or speed. Paper and fiber filter
elements are replaced when they are dirty.
3. Carburetor Inlet Filters.
Some automatic manufacturers install a filter at
the carburetor inlet. The filter is screwed into the
carburetor fuel inlet and is clamped to the inlet
hose at the other end

4. Pump Outlet Filters.

Some cars incorporate fuel filters at the outlet
side of the fuel pump or installed in the fuel pump
outlet tower or it is located at the bottom of the
pump.

How to Clean a Fuel Filter

If your filter is nylon or paper, you should just replace it with a new one. If it's made of
metal and isn't too grimy, you can clean and reuse it. Before you start, relieve your
fuel system's pressure and disconnect your battery. Remove the filter from the fuel
lines, then spray it with a solvent cleaner. Let it dry for an hour, then reinstall it,
reconnect your battery, and run your engine.

Removing the Filter

1. Relieve the pressure in your fuel system.
Check your owner's manual to find the fuse for
your fuel pump. Remove it, then start your
engine and let it run for 1 to 2 minutes. It might
sputter out before the time's up, which means
the pressure is relieved.
While the engine might sputter out, this isn't
necessary to relieve the pressure. Running it for
1 to 2 minutes will do the trick.
Make sure your car is parked in a level, well-
ventilated area.

7
2. Disconnect the negative terminal on your
battery. Turn your car off, then open the hood.
Find the negative terminal on your battery, and
use a wrench to remove the cable. Tuck the
cable on the side of the battery so it doesn't
accidentally come into contact with its terminal.
If you don't disconnect the battery, sparks could
ignite gas fumes and residue that drips from the
fuel lines.
3. Place a bucket or jar under the filter to catch
fuel. When you detach the fuel lines from the
filter, any gas remaining in the lines will spill. A
bucket or jar underneath the filter area will catch
spilled gas

4. Remove the fuel lines. Use a wrench or hose

clamps to slide the fuel lines off of the filter. Pop
the lines off of the nozzles on either end of the
filter. As you remove the lines, make sure to
angle them toward the bucket or jar to catch any
gas that drips.
Wear gloves and protective eyewear when you
detach the fuel lines.

5. Remove the filter from its bracket. Depending

on your vehicle, you'll either slide the filter out of
a bracket or loosen bolts that hold it in place.
Look around your filter for bolts or check your
manual.
Before you slide out the filter, note its position
so you'll know how to correctly reinstall it.

Cleaning the Filter

1. Pour out any gas remaining in the filter.
There might be residual gas in the filter. Gently
tap both the fuel-in and fuel-out nozzles into the
container you used to catch spilled gas from the
fuel lines.
The nozzles are located at each end of the filter.

2. Spray the filter with a pressurized carburetor

cleaner. Purchase a cleaner in a pressurized
container that comes with a small application
straw. Attach the straw to the container's spout,
then spray inside each nozzle.

8
3. Tap out loosened debris, then dry the filter
for an hour. Carefully knock the filter against
the side of the container you used to catch
spilled gas. Let the spray and any loose debris
fall out of each nozzle. Spray the nozzles one
more time, tap out debris, and let the filter air
dry for at least 1 hour

CHANGING FUEL FILTERS

Changing the fuel filter is a part of regular maintenance. Keeping your fuel system
properly maintained by changing the fuel filter prolongs the life of the fuel pump. Dirt
in the fuel is captured by the filter which clogs over time, causing it to operate less
efficiently. The clogged filter reduces fuel pressure and volume in the fuel system. If
your vehicle is losing power, it could be a sign of a clogged fuel filter. Replace the
filter at the manufacturer’s recommended interval.

Removing the Old Fuel Filter

1. Locate the fuel filter. There are two common
locations fuel filters are mounted in vehicles, so
you should refer to your vehicle’s service
manual to help you determine which place to
look. The most common location for modern
vehicles is along the fuel line on the bottom of
the car, just past the fuel pump.
2. Place a bowl or bucket beneath the fuel
filter. Although you relieved the pressure in the
fuel line, there may be a bit of fuel left in the line
that can spill out when disconnected from the
fuel filter. Place a bowl or bucket beneath the
fuel filter to catch any fuel that drips or pours
out.
Be careful of using plastic containers to hold
gas, as it may eat through some kinds of plastic
and cause a leak.
3. Remove the clips holding the fuel filter in
place. Most fuel filters are held in place by two
plastic clips. Locate the clips on either side of
the cylindrical fuel filter, then use a flat head
screwdriver to pop them out of the holes they
are in. The clips that hold the fuel filter in place
are made of thin plastic and tend to break
easily. If you are able to remove them without
them breaking, they may be reused.

9
4. Remove the fuel lines from the filter. With the
clips removed, slide the fuel lines away from the
filter to pop them off of the nozzles on either
end. You should wear eye protection and
gloves during this portion of the project to
protect you from fuel splatter.

5. Slide the fuel filter out of its bracket. The fuel

filter is likely held in place by a metal bracket
that wraps around its outer housing. With the
fuel lines disconnected, you can slide the fuel
filter out of the bracket by pushing it toward the
front of the car. If your filter sits in the bracket
differently, you may need to slide it toward the
back of the car to remove it.
Installing a New Fuel Filter

1. Slide the new fuel filter into the bracket. The

new fuel filter should easily slide into its
bracket. Be careful not to damage the housing
of the fuel filter, as that may cause a leak. If you
find yourself pushing hard on the filter to make
it fit, it is likely not the correct one.

2. Fasten the fuel filter to the fuel line. Slide the

fuel lines onto the front and back of the filter the
same way they were attached to the old one.
With the fuel line in place on the filter, slide the
plastic clips through the holes on the fuel line
nozzle to secure the line in place on the fuel
filter. If the plastic clip breaks as you slide it in,
do not attempt to drive the vehicle until you
replace the broken clip.

AIR CLEANER
The main purpose of an automotive air filter is to filter and clean outside air before it
gets sucked into a car engine and burned along with fuel to produce combustion.

Protect Vehicle Engine

Air that gets sucked into a car engine needs to be as clean as possible to prevent
engine contamination and, in some cases, engine damage. An air filter is the main
line of defense against preventing damaging particulate matter from entering a
vehicle's engine. Dirty air can reduce engine efficiency and cause damage; an air
filter prevents this.

Protect Carburetor/Fuel Injection System

A carburetor or fuel injection system is responsible for injecting both gas and air into
an engine's cylinders, a combination more commonly referred to as an engine's

10
air/fuel mixture. Both carburetors and fuel injection systems use tiny portals and
valves to function. Any debris or obstruction that enters these portals and valves can
cause serious malfunction and/or damage. An engine air filter protects these delicate
parts by filtering incoming air before it enters a carburetor or fuel injection system.

Increase Fuel Economy

A clean, properly installed and functioning air filter increases both engine
performance and gas mileage. By filtering incoming air into an engine, an air filter
ensures that air burned inside of an engine is as clean as possible. Clean, purified
air ignites quicker and better inside of an engine cylinder, an occurrence that
increases engine combustion efficiency, which increases fuel economy.

Expand Carburetor/Fuel Injection Function

As air gets sucked into a car's engine, it must first pass through the air filter before it
reaches either the carburetor or fuel injection system, which is in charge of
combining incoming air with gasoline, a combination that creates an engine's air/fuel
mixture. A dirty air filter obstructs air flow and limits the amount of air that reaches
the carburetor or fuel injection system, either of which responds by reducing the
amount of gas injected into the air. A clean air filter augments carburetor/fuel
injection function by maintaining an adequate amount of air flow.

CHANGING AIR FILTER

Changing the air filter should be part of any major tune-up, but if you drive on dirt
roads or in other dusty conditions, you will need to replace it more frequently. On
most cars, this is a fairly simple procedure. You should change your car's air filter
every 15,000 miles.

Steps/Procedure in changing air filter

1. Open the hood.
2. Locate your air filter, usually found on top of the
engine. On cars with carburetors it is in a round
piece of metal about the size of a medium pizza;
fuel-injected cars have square or rectangular air filter
housings that may be off to the side of the engine.

3. Unscrew or unclamp the top to the air filter

housing.

4. Lift out the air filter. It should be a round or

rectangular filter made of paper or plastic, with a
rubber rim.

11
5. Clean the area with a vacuum cleaner or seal the top of the carburetor.
This will keep debris out of the carburetor as you continue to clean the housing.
6. Clean out any dirt or bugs from the inside of the air
filter housing with a rag.

Replace the filter with a new filter. Consult your

manual to determine the proper filter for your car.

7. Replace the cover and close the hood.

Check your old filter element for dirt, oil or moisture,
cracks and proper sealing at the gasket.

Warning: Avoid using the wrong size air filter. Your engine will run less efficiently.

Note: Reusable air filters cost more than disposable filters, but if cared for correctly,
they can last for over 50,000 miles.

Another good way to make your air filter last is to actually use a vacuum cleaner.
Simply take the filter out and with the small attachments from the vacuum, suck out
the dust and dirt. Good as new and it will make your filter last a little longer.
