Jeep Genuine Mopar Fuel Filters

The fuel filter is a vital part of your vehicle’s internal combustion engine as it effectively filters out the dirt and rust particles from the fuel. Without this filtration system, the harmful debris in the fuel will enter your engine and cause damage. Jeeps Are Us carries a wide array of genuine Mopar fuel filters that are compatible with select model-years of the Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram. 

Safeguard Your Engine from Debris with Mopar Car Fuel Filters

Fuel filters are normally available as cartridges with a filter paper. They play an important part in your engine maintenance as they shield the engine from harmful debris, such as dirt and rust particles. When the gasoline or diesel stored in the tank is drawn through fuel lines, it passes through a fuel filter and then enters a fuel injector or carburetor. Fuel is then diverted into the cylinder chamber, where it is mixed with air, vaporized, and incinerated to generate energy. 

Regular fuel filter replacement is vital because improperly filtered fuel can accelerate wear on the fuel pump and injectors. By following your automobile manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule, you’ll safeguard your engine and your vehicle’s overall performance.

Frequently Asked Questions: Fuel Filter

Where is a fuel filter located?

Car fuel filters are often found between the fuel tank and the engine. You can access this filter by opening the fuel line of the tank or by getting to it from the bottom of your vehicle. It’s best to consult with your car manual to identify the exact location of your fuel filter.

How can I tell if a fuel filter is bad?

The following instances are symptoms of a bad fuel filter:

• Hard starts

• Engine misfires

• Jerking as the car moves uphill

• Stalling and rough idling

• Faulty fuel pump

• Inefficient fuel combustion

• Reduced power and fuel economy

• Loud humming or sputtering noises from the engine

If you encounter any of these symptoms, consider changing your fuel filter immediately.

How often should I change a fuel filter?

Fuel filter changes should be done every 20,000 to 30,000 miles, depending on the recommendation of your car manufacturer. Changing these filters should also be done whenever you’re scheduled for an oil change. Have your mechanic check your fuel filters regularly so you’ll know when to replace them.

Can you clean a fuel filter without removing it?

You should first disconnect the filter properly before attempting to remove it. Once removed, you should get rid of any excess fuel in the filter before removing any dirt and grime from it. Once done, you can put it back in your car and reconnect the fuel lines. Take note that you can only clean metal fuel filters. If you have paper or nylon filters, your only option is to replace them with a new one.

What happens if the fuel filter is not changed?

Using your car with a faulty fuel filter can lead to various engine performance problems. Your check engine light will always show up on your dashboard. Your fuel injectors will also become clogged more easily and lead to total engine failure and costly repairs.
