How do I replace or remove my Racor filter?

Turbine Assembly

1. Assure your fuel system is completely shut off.  Remove the T handle and metal cover on the top of  your turbine assembly. There are two plastic handles attached to the filter that are very flexible. Use a hook tool, screwdriver, or any small object to loop either of the flexible handles, being careful not to drop anything inside the body of the assembly. Grab the handles, pull up, let the remaining fuel drain into the body, remove the filter and discard accordingly.

Spin-On Assembly

1. Ensure your fuel system is completely shut off. Drain and fuel out of the bowl. Use your hand or a bowl wrench,available here, to remove your metal, clear, or blue bowl from the bottom of the filter assembly. Check to make sure no gaskets or debris are leftover where your new filter will make contact  with the assembly. Using your hand, hand tighten the filter snugly to the assembly body then reapply your metal, clear, or blue bowl with your filter wrench/ hand snugly.
