Fuel filter Wix or OEM Volkswagen

Plastic ones made by Wix or similar brand are good, wouldnn't recommend cheap no-name ones, no guarantee that the plastic in those is suitable. Wix/similar are not a firehazard if fitted properly.

go to any auto shop and ask for a fuel filter for a seventies Volkswagen beetle.

I just run the usual small inline deals, Wix or Beck/Arnley filters.

For my TDI it's literally just a standard oil change, and then fuel filter every 20k miles. Hardly an additional burden.

The responses inspired me to replace my fuel filter. I went for a drive and it seems like the engine sounds much smoother.

i did add a dipstick fuel filter looked to be newer, plausible considering the somewhat recent pump and injector service, but figured "while im in there..."

New stuff i attended to. checked cleaned and pull apart the Warm up regulator. Was not clogged or dirty. worked fine. replaced the fuel filter, which i did notice was a little crummy. but normal.

I started to look at the fuel filter that I put in and noticed that people have been talking about different pressure regulators in the filters, I thought that maybe I put in the wrong one and someone else had done this before. So I changed the filter out for the latest VW OEM 6.6 Bar filter. Again this made an slight improvement

not the wix. I had their filter for a few months. it started leaking and the seal wouldn't fit anymore.
