Compatibility and Fitment
Use this element in housings that accept the R2132P geometry. Always compare the dimensions, sealing arrangement and flow direction in your existing bowl or head. Because installations vary, confirm clearance and ensure fuel hoses are routed without kinks. Replace seals during each service to maintain leak-free operation.
Compliance and Safety
Isolate the fuel supply, then relieve pressure before opening the housing. Fit the new seals, lubricate lightly with clean fuel, and seat the element squarely. After reassembly, prime the system and inspect for leaks while the engine idles. Dispose of fuel-wet media in accordance with local regulations, and record the service date.
Marine Applications
The Ryco Fuel Filter 15 Micron works well on auxiliary tanks, petrol inboards and repowered boats using automotive-style bowl housings. Consequently, it helps reduce drivability issues caused by rust, varnish and tank sediment. Moreover, its widely available size makes spares simple to carry aboard.
