Changing fuel filter

Post by Welshclimber »

Hi everyone,

Bought our van a couple of months ago and just working our way through some servicing. Changed the fuel filter yesterday but the new one isn’t completely full, has got some air in the top of it. Have we done something wrong while fitting it? Thanks in advance, on a steep learning curve!

P.s have tried searching the forums and the wiki

The fuel filter will only appear half full, that is perfectly normal if its a inline filter under the cill by the fuel tank
