Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Disconnect the vehicle’s battery to ensure safety. Drain a small amount of fuel from the tank if necessary to reduce pressure.
2. Locate the Filter Housing: The WK 9046 Z is typically positioned along the fuel line between the fuel pump and the engine intake manifold.
3. Remove Old Filter: Use a socket wrench to loosen the mounting bolts. Carefully lift the old filter out, allowing any residual fuel to drain into a container.
4. Install New Filter: Place the new filter in the housing, aligning it with the flow direction indicated by the arrow on the body. Tighten the mounting bolts securely but avoid over‑torqueing.
5. Check for Leaks: Reconnect the battery and start the engine. Inspect the installation area for any fuel leaks; if detected, tighten the bolts slightly more.
