[diesel_mercedes] Re: Intake Fuel Prefilters????

They're only screens Nate , not designed to stop anything but the
chunks and watery crud , if they filtered well , they'd clog and stop
the car from running soon as they're so small .

I need to remove mine and blow it out backwards , if you remove it
carefully , keeping your finger over the inlet side so it stays full of
fuel , you can upright it and gently shake it to settle 99 % of the
dirt & chunks down into the inlet nipple then simply blow it clean from
the outlet side with your mouth .

if you do this when under 1/4 tank of fuel , it won't siphon out and
make a mess whilst you're fooling with the filter....

No need to clean them with chemicals either .
