Finding were a filter is

On these vehicles, the fuel filter is located on the fuel line to the carburetor. Special care should be taken when removing and installing the fuel filter, not to bend or distort the fuel line in any way.

2. Remove the air cleaner bonnet assembly.
3. Using a backup wrench on the return line fitting on the top of the fuel filter, remove the fuel line with a flare nut wrench.
4. Using a backup wrench on the fuel filter inlet fitting, remove the fuel line from the fuel filter with a flare nut wrench.
5. Using a backup wrench on the fuel filter outlet fitting, loosen the fuel line and remove the fuel filter from the engine with a flare nut wrench.

1. Apply a drop of engine oil to all the fuel line nuts and flared ends.
2. Position the fuel filter with flow arrow on the filter directed towards the fuel line going to the carburetor.
3. Finger-tighten the fittings at the fuel filter outlet, inlet and return line into the top of the filter.
4. Using a backup wrench on the fuel filter fittings, tighten the fuel lines in the following sequence:
   1. Tighten the outlet and inlet line nuts to 15-18 ft. lbs. (20.0-24.0 Nm)
   2. Tighten the nut on the return line at the top of the filter to 6-9 ft. lbs. (15-18 Nm).
5. Inspect the fuel lines and carefully adjust if they are interfering with the carburetor, air pump, or fuel filter housing.
6. Start the engine and check for fuel leaks at all the connections. Retighten if necessary.
