*Loosen mounting screws (arrows) and remove filter. *Unscrew fitting from old filter and attach to new filter with new seal ring. *Install new fuel filter in flow direction with plastic sleeve. *Sleeve should project on both sides of the holder since contact corrosion may occur if there is direct contact with the holder. *Replace plastic sleeve, if necessary. *Connect steel line to filter. *Retighten mounting screws. *Check for leaks.
