Remove the fuel hoses from the
used filter, and discard the filter.
To ease hose removal, release the
hose clamps by squeezing the
clamp ends together with pliers
while pulling off the hoses.
Install the new filter on the fuel
hoses, with the fuel flow arrow
pointing toward the fuel pump as
shown. Fuel flow will be impeded
if the filter is installed backward.
Connect the fuel hoses to the fuel
filter securely with the hose
clamps. Remove the fuel hose
clips used to close the fuel hoses.
Disconnect the fuel hose connector
from the outboard motor, and
place commercially available hose
clips on the fuel hoses on each side
of the filter to prevent fuel leakage
when the fuel hoses are
disconnected.
