Fuel Filter Location

[ChrisL]

Hi,

I have a 1990 1.6s Fiesta.

The Haynes manual I have says that the fuel filter is behind the battery in the engine compartment, however, I have looked and can't seem to locate this large part.

Please can somone give me an idea of where this is.

Thanks in advance

Hi

The fuel filter is normally under the car, by the fuel tank. Is the car a H reg?

Hi Purdy fpv, my car is a G reg.

If it is pre 1992. Then it may not have a fuel filter. It will only have a fuel filter if the car is an injection. As yours is a G reg then it is more likely to have a carbretta. You don't get fuel filters on the old carbretta cars.

Well looking at my manual, it seems that the shape of the engine is the same as a CVH, which is CVH CFi.

The parts company gave this filter from my reg number.

I will have to pop by my local garage and get them to put it on there ramps.

Thanks anyway
