Good To Know

Q: What is the difference between a fuel filter head and a fuel filter base? A: The terms are often used interchangeably, but the head or base is the reusable housing that the disposable filter element screws onto, which this part represents.

Q: Is the fuel filter element included with this head? A: No, this is for the fuel filter head (housing) only. You must purchase the compatible fuel filter element separately for installation.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
