Installation Location

The Fuel Pro must be installed between the fuel tank and 
the fuel transfer pump . In some cases, the Fuel Pro can be 
used as the only fuel filter in the system . This is generally 
dependent on the engine model year . Consult the engine 
manufacturer for their recommendation . 

Mounting the Fuel Pro

•  Do not install the Fuel Pro directly on the engine .
•  Mount vertically with the cover and element pointing 

up .

•  Make sure there is enough top and side clearance for 

the cover to be conveniently removed for filter replace-
ment .

•  The Fuel Pro MUST be installed so that the filter ele-

ment is above the "FULL" level of the fuel tank .

 

The ignition key must be in the off position, unless 
otherwise directed. To avoid unintentional engine 
startup, use a lockout key and/or signage to alert 
personnel that work is being performed. Chock the 
wheels.

1 .  With the engine shut down and at ambient temperature, 

close the fuel shutoff valve (if equipped) and place a 
suitable container under the fuel filters .

2 .  Remove the primary fuel filter element assembly, sedi-

menter, and/or water separator . Drain the used element 
and dispose of it in an environmentally responsible 
manner, according to state and/or federal (EPA) recom-
mendations .

Fuel Line Routing

To minimize fuel system restriction, observe the follow-
ing guidelines when plumbing the fuel system:

•  Keep the fuel line routing as smooth as possible with 

no low-hanging loops which can trap water .

•  Use 90° elbows only when necessary .
•  If the fuel hoses are cut to length on the job, be sure 

that the inner liner of the fuel hose is not cut by the fit-
ting, which can cause check valve performance issues . 
Make sure hoses are clean and free of debris before 
installing .

•  To avoid damaging the aluminum Fuel Pro body, do not 

overtighten fuel lines or fuel linåe fittings .

3 .  Route the fuel supply line from the pick up on the fuel 

tank to the Fuel Pro inlet (labeled “FUEL IN” on figure 
below, not labeled on housing) .

4 .  Route the fuel outlet line from the Fuel Pro outlet (la-

beled “FUEL OUT”) to the inlet of the fuel pump .

Note: 

The drawing below reflects the left side Fuel In/Fuel 

Out configuration . Fuel In is also available on the right side .
