Recommend me a fuel filter
cliftyhanger - 24/11/24 at 07:17 PM

I am after an efi fuel filter, but want something small. I have one here the size of can of beans, (about 80mm diameter, the filter itself is 100 odd mm long, plus the connections) but it really is far too huge for my car.
So can anybody make a suggestion for a small EFI filter? It needs 8mm connections, and ideally from a production car rather than one of the (rather expensive) "motorsport" type.

Perhaps something like a Bosch F 5316 (0 450 905 316)

Only issue with that is its ends take click on fittings.

I use a Mahle kl14 /Mann wk613 (Astra gte amongst others)
It's 89x55 body. 140 overall length and 8mm pipes, with swaged ends for hose+clips

That is an even better bet, so thank you
