- A quick how to on how to replace the fuel filter in a Ford Focus 1.6 tdci.
Priming the fuel filter with diesel is key to a successful replacement.
Diesel engines are very sensitive to air in the system!
A lot of diesel cars do not have a feed pump in the tank, so the high pressure pump actually sucks fuel from the filter. If air pockets are present the HP pump might not be able to create a sufficient vacuum enough to start the engine. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
This is a great guide. I've watched a few that prime it in different ways. Sucking it through from the tank seems the easiest and obvious to me and worked perfectly. I used a Draper bulb pump that did the trick (although it had the wrong connectors - I had to remove a connector and attach it straight to the pipe).
Glad it helped! 👍
On my way to the fuel filter I found a vacum hose that was loose. That solved my acceleration and engine dying.
Primed it up as you said,started first time,a slight tapping from no1 injector, left it running for 5 mins the tapping stopped after it had cleared out the air,like you say you have to completely prime the filter,i did it with a hand pump and i drew about a litre through the filter untill i could see no bubbles.Good video Mate.
Thank you :) Yes exactly priming it real good is key! 👍
Thanks man!
Yessss!

Hi there. This is a great video but out of curiosity, what did you use to bleed the fuel into the filter. Was it a specific tool or was it something you made yourself?
Thank you 😊
It was a brake fluid bleeder 👍
Hei du.
Hvor i sverige bor du? Jeg er fra norge. Vil ta polering og wax jobb til bilen min?
Can the black plastic part ontop of these filters be removed so there's access to the inside of the filter ? Only reason i'm asking this is because i need to run a "Diesel Cleaner" through my fuel tank so it starts to clear all the dirty diesel gunge that's built up inside my fuel tank over time. It'll save me a few pounds if the inside of the filter can be accessed to be cleaned out so i don't need to buy say 2x brand new fuel filters. Got a feeling that the filter is a "Sealed" unit though :(
Hi, i did the process in my volvo s40 1.6 which has same engine, however volvo can prime itself by movng the key from position off to positon 2 for five times. and then you just start the car t starts, i have done it in 3 cars for 2-3 times and it always work like that, now i have to do it in a mondeo, not sure if there exist simlar method to volvo or do i need to prime the fiilter your way?
Thank you for your comment. 😊
I actually tried to prime it here as well, but it didn't seem to do anything.. So the use of a suction pump was necessary.
Do u happen to know the same goes for the C30, or let’s say, all P1 Volvo’s with this engine?
Sorry for the sound quality on this one. My main mic just broke and I have to get a new one!
Vad gör man om man råkar vaxa o ytbehandla en smutsig bil? Antar att man kör på med mycket kall/ alkalisk avfettning?
Can I ask for a suggestion to start the car afterwards as it refuse to start...I did exactly same job as you just used a hand pomp to bleed it but still wont start...
Yes, you really have to bleed the system thoroughly, especially if you're doing it by hand. The filter needs to be completely primed with fuel and bled from air. So the boring answer is to bleed more, sorry. :/

Du är grym med videos på svenska
Tack så jättemycket! :D
Har sett andra videos där de skruvar bort locket på filtret för att fylla på det med tratt. Är det helt åt skogen ?
Dessa bilar är extremt känsliga mot minsta lilla läcka, så jag skulle inte fippla med filtret i onödan. Denna luftningsmetod är utan tvekan den bästa jag vet. 👍😊
@@ejoautovideos Om man inte har en pump, kan man inte bara suga på en (ren) slang på samma vis? Eller är det för tungt för att dra diesel genom filtret med lungorna?
Bytte det igår och det gick galant. Dock kom nya filtret utan plastringen runt filtret och delen med kontakten och inloppet. Var bara att flytta över från gamla. Men... det fanns inget kontaktstycke från bilen att koppla in i filtret, vad har denna för funktion, mäter bränslemäng/tryck? Tycker att den borde funnits om det är en kontakt på filtret. Focus 1.6 2010.
Uppdatering. Jag hittade kontakten och kopplade in den. Detta kanske kan ha orsakat att jag fått upp "Motorfel" vid gaspådrag när jag trodde att det var igensatt bränslefilter.
Härligt, vad bra! 👍
Have same car😊
How often should change fuel filter?
Fords service intervals are available online, just google it!
I have the same engine on a mazda 3 it crank's and won't start fuel isn't getting through i changed the filter today to rule it out and primed the diesel through and it still won't start. it also did fire up for a few seconds with easy start fluid.
How did you resolve this? Did u get P2291 code?
@@CarloLeonKolega i had leaking injector seals which i changed myself then it also needed a new alternator but i think that was a separate issue.
Is that not a fuel pump ?
Wat about bleeding it up did u forget that u show half a job
I literally did show it with that pneumatic bleeder tool.
@@ejoautovideos can you post what tool you used?
I can't get the fuel through to the filter
