Why Regular Filter Changes Matter
The EcoDiesel's Bosch CP4.2 high-pressure fuel pump is extremely sensitive to contamination. Water or debris in diesel fuel can cause catastrophic pump failure — a $8,000+ repair. Regular filter changes at every 15,000 miles (or annually) are the cheapest insurance for your EcoDiesel engine.
Installation Tips
- Use a 28mm socket or filter housing wrench to remove the cap
- Always replace the O-ring with each filter change
- Prime the fuel system by cycling the key ON/OFF 3-4 times
- Pre-fill the housing with clean diesel to reduce air in the system
