Servicing - Fuel Filter S2R800, change?

[Petej]

Ok so switching tanks and have taken out the fuel pump assembly and presume that this is a fuel filter? If so is it a serviceable item and would it really be needing a change?

It's a scheduled service item, replace every 6000mi/1yr.

When replacing the filter i would check and double check the condition of the o-ring to.

Cheers guys, You talking about the main o'ring where it meets the tank?

[pegboy]

yes thats the one, i changed tanks on my 749 and the o-ring looked great but when i fitted, it leaked.

Change filter and O-ring at service like Slob said.also while is out worth checking wiring for continuity.

The filter is directional, make sure the arrow goes with the flow of fuel.

Cheers guys have ordered one, will double check the 'O' ring and wiring also!

lubricate the o-ring with some non petroleum (e.g. lithium) grease before you put it in, will stop it from rolling up or pinching when re-installing it
