Installation Guide

1. Turn off the engine and allow the vehicle to cool.
2. Locate the existing fuel filter housing; remove the old filter by unscrewing the mounting flange.
3. Inspect the gasket surface for damage or residue. Clean if necessary.
4. Place the new gasket from the supplied set onto the flange, ensuring proper alignment.
5. Screw in the PU 966/2 x filter until it is snug but not overtightened; use a torque wrench to achieve the manufacturer’s recommended torque.
6. Reconnect any fuel lines and restore pressure. Check for leaks around the gasket area.
7. Start the engine and monitor for proper operation and absence of abnormal noises or vibrations.

Maintenance Tips

• Schedule filter replacement according to the vehicle’s service interval, typically every 30,000–50,000 km depending on operating conditions.
• Avoid using incompatible filters; always verify that the model matches the PU 966/2 x specifications.
• Inspect the gasket for wear during each replacement cycle to prevent fuel leaks.
• Store spare filters in a dry, temperature‑controlled environment to preserve material integrity.
