connection of the water-in-fuel sensor.

Installation
1. Manually assembly water-in-fuel sensor, until
rubber ring touches the new filter.
2. Turn sensor 1/3 turn clockwise.
3. Position filter in the clamp and install water-
in-fuel sensor electric connection 1 and 4.
4. Support filter in the support and if necessary,
adjust filter to allow better a position of the

5. Install fuel inlet and outlet pipes.
6. Tighten clamp nut until the clamp touches the
support (to avoid strangle).
Note: The upper edge of the filter must be pushed against the aluminum support in order to

the edge of the filter and the support, the sensor will loose action and will not indicate
the water presence in the vehicle panel.
