2017 Fiat Tipo (1.6L MultiJet II) Diesel Fuel Filter Replacement
First time changing one of these. Let me know if I did anything dumb, but the work was pretty straight forward. Hopefully it can help somebody else.
I basically copied the procedures from this video: czcams.com/video/rojptLaRuRU/video.html

    Really enjoyed your video and honesty about not being a mechanic - just a tip , always suck out the diesel fuel from the filter bowl as it can have dirt and old water residue left in it , and lastly alittle deisel on your finger then run it around the rubber gasket to help installation .

    Thanks. Had similar problem with one of the hex screws which would not come out, so had to take whole filter housing out of car and put it in a vice to get out screw.

    I have the same make, model and year as you, and I'm thinking of tinkering a bit with it. Thank you for this video! It'll probably come in handy relatively soon! :)

    Hi Billy, Thanks for posting the video up... A few pointers for when you need to do this again next time, or for anyone else finding this video wishing to do the same job.. 1 - Pop off the big plastic Multijet engine cover and this will give you better access, this cover just lifts up and is held in place by 4 rubber grommets which push onto metal spikes on top of the engine. 2 - The fuel filter is intended to be fully removed from the car to change the filter, it is held in place by 2 x 10mm bolts that you will see when you remove the engine cover. This makes it very easy to remove the Torx screws and no special adaptors needed. The inside of the housing can also very easily be cleaned to remove sediment from the bottom. 3 - On the top of this filter is a 'Bleed Nipple'... The 12mm hex screw with the pipe stub sticking up... When the new filter has been fitted and the housing re fitted to the car, this nipple should have a small length of tube attached and the open end placed into a container, then the nipple opened when the Ignition is turned on and the pump primes so as to vent the air from the top of the housing. Do this carefully as you may get air bubbles and splashing. It helps to have an assistant turn on and off the ignition whilst you open and close the bleed nipple. Hope these pointers help for next time you have to do the job... Also I should say your filter looked very very clean!!! Either the fuel near you is super clean or that filter had not long been changed... Normally these filters when removed are very black and gungy!!

      Hi, sorry I must ask, once the filter has been replaced, do I open the bleed nipple and keep it open till I get a constant flow of diesel coming out then lock it back and all is well? Thanks!

    • @alexb1340
      @alexb1340 Před 2 lety

      @@ahmedhakim6767 yep, just open the nipple till air has gone and no bubbles. Normally only takes a few seconds. It is also worth doing again after a short drive but not essential.

      Thanks a lot for the help. I'm not sure when i'll have to replace the filter again, but i'll certainly remove the housing next time. While changing it I remember seeing those bolts and wondering if I should just pull out the entire housing as it would have made the process a lot simpler/controlled.

    So who did the police find at fault? It seems to me that they're both equally at fault because the cyclist shouldn't have been on the sidewalk and should have been walking his bike across the crosswalk and the car went straight from a right turn only lane.

      +barbadosslimful that doesn't make this bicyclist not negligent. Regardless of the illegal move by the car, the cyclist had plenty of time to see it coming.
