• Lower Maintenance Costs: The robust construction and high filtration capacity mean fewer filter changes are required compared to standard filters.

Installation & Maintenance Guide

1. Preparation: Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface, engine off, and cooled. Disconnect the battery if working near electrical components.

2. Drain Existing Filter: Locate the current fuel filter. Use a suitable container to catch any residual fuel. Unscrew the old filter, allowing any trapped water to drain through the drainage screw.

3. Install WK 854/2: Align the new filter’s threaded end with the fuel line. Tighten by hand until snug, then give an additional quarter turn with a wrench for a secure fit. Attach the water drainage screw and tighten lightly to allow proper drainage.

4. Check Seals: Inspect all gaskets and seals for damage or wear; replace if necessary.

5. Prime Fuel System: Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and let it idle until the fuel pressure stabilizes. Check for leaks around the filter connection.
