Fuel Filters

The gas that feeds your car, pickup, van, or SUV still contains impurities left over following the production process. That's why your vehicle has a fuel filter in place, helping to prevent those nasties from building up in your fuel pump, fuel injectors, and engine. Without it, your performance would suffer greatly.

How Fuel Filters Work

Today, most vehicles have two kinds of air filters. One is a strainer that's located in the fuel tank. The other is in the main fuel line. These cylindrical cartridges have filter paper inside, which captures contaminants before they can move into vulnerable parts. In that way, they work much like your air filter and oil filter do.

if either filter gets clogged up, or degrades with age, trouble will follow. That’s when they need to be replaced.
