Make sure the O-ring is in position in the
cup. Insert the cup and O-ring into the fil-
ter housing. Lift up and hold the locking
tab to screw the ring nut onto the filter
housing until the ring is lightly seated.
5. Tighten the ring nut approximately an
additional 1/4 turn until the ring nut is
tight. Align one of the four larger ring nut
tabs with the locking tab and release it to
lock the ring nut in position.
6. Run the engine and check the filter and
lines for leaks.
NOTE:
If any water is in the fuel, the red ring in the
fuel filter unit will float. If so, remove the cup
and drain the water.
