Maintenance 103
Changing the Secondary Fuel Filter
DANGER
Before working on or inspecting a
vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the
transmission in neutral and block the
wheels. Failure to do so can result in
unexpected vehicle movement and can
cause serious personal injury or death.

WARNING
Hot engine. Keep yourself clear of all hot
engine parts and/or fluids. A hot engine
and/or can cause serious burns.
Clean around the fuel filter. This
is important — if dirt mixes with the
fuel from this filter, it will end up in the
injection system.

DANGER
To avoid potential fire hazard, do not
service any part of the fuel system while
smoking or in the presence of flames,
sparks or hot surfaces, or when working
on an operating engine. Failure to follow
these precautions can result in fire. To
guard against burns from direct contact
with hot fuel, wear adequate protective
clothing (face shield, heavy gloves and
apron, etc.) when working on a hot
engine.
Remove the filter element. Dispose
of it in a safe and responsible manner.
