ESR4065 - Atlantic British part number for a fuel filter on a DII
Everyone here keeps saying the fuel filter is integrated with the fuel pump and you have to replace the entire thing - makes a lot of sense duhhhhhhhh
Would someone please clarify? Can you simply change a fuel filter on a DII without replacing the freakin' fuel pump???? |

Perhaps this is the large paricle screen for the fuel pump, and not really a filter... |

Not sure about the DII location, but the fuel filter for a DI is located on the frame behind the right rear tire. |

I specifically asked my dealer serviceperson about my fuel filter, when I had to take my truck in for a valve job. He said there is no fuel filter. Only a screen in front of the fuel pump in the tank. The reasoning for this was that 'the injectors are so bullet-proof that they don't need a filter'. I'm not sure I belive him, (about the injectors) but that's what I was told. |

The way MY injectors are, I would say they need all the help they can get.
I have changed my fuel filter on my D1, which is NOT inside the tank.
I'm not sure about the D2, but if you go out and look in the rear pass side wheel well (Between the frame and the well) you will see it if it has one. |

Looking at D2 the Service manual looks like there is a coarse and a fine filter. The fine filter is a non-serviceable fine paper filter.
I wonder if the Starbucks Trophy Disco will come with a gold filter in place of the paper filter  |

Atlantic British is wrong......
The esr4065 is the common in-line filter for RRC's/D1's/4.0,4.6....
The D2 is not equipped with an inline filter. Just the filter on the pump, and only serviceable as a new fuel pump....
fwiw-

Humm,
AB wrong? No, could not happen. Please order the filter and fit it to your DII. craig is just trying to sell more fuel pumps from not changed filters.
A service person telling you your injectors are bulletproof. Of course he is right. The oil from the intake gasket leak makes the bullets slide off.
