| What
the Automotive Fuel Filter Does... |
Fuel filters are essential in helping
to protect fuel system components from contaminants that may
be in the fuel. These contaminants can plug fuel injectors or
carburetors, causing engine malfunction and deterioration. Dirt,
rust, scale and water are the major impurities present in fuel.
These impurities can originate from dirty and rusty service
station storage tanks and, as the vehicle ages, from corrosion
within the fuel system components.
All of the fuel that enters the engine must first pass through
the fuel filter. Which means the high efficiency provided by
NAPA Filters fuel filters is vital for long and trouble-free fuel system
and engine life.
Diesel Fuel Filters
Fine particles, free water and emulsified water must be removed
from diesel fuel before it passes through the fuel injection
system. Fuel from the fuel tank is routed through the filter
where contaminants are removed. If the filter is a fuel / water
separator, the fine particles remain trapped in the filter media
while the water droplets come together and fall to the bottom
of the filter. NAPA Filters fuel / water separator filters are equipped
with a drain at the bottom of the filter to drain this water
from the filter.
NAPA Filters offers high quality, high efficiency fuel filters for medium
and heavy-duty trucks, as well as farm, construction, mining
and other equipment applications.
