General Information
CAUTION
Some of the clearances between the fuel injection pump
parts are very close. For this reason, the parts can
easily be damaged by rust formation and contaminants.
NOTE: Be sure to use the correct element.
Filtration and separation of water from the fuel is important
for trouble-free operation and long life of the fuel system.
The element has a valve that can be opened regularly to
drain the collected water.
