Fuel Pump Pickup Filter: Description and Operation

 

FUEL STRAINER

The fuel strainer attaches to the lower end of the fuel sender. The fuel strainer is made of woven plastic. The functions of the fuel strainer are to filter
contaminants and to wick fuel. The fuel strainer is self-cleaning and normally requires no maintenance. Fuel stoppage at this point indicates that the fuel
tank contains an abnormal amount of sediment or water.
