Fuel Filter/s in 87 GL Wagon

Featured Replies

I have heard that there is a primary and secondary fuel filter in the 87 GL Wagon. Is this true because my manual is only stating that there is one canister filter towards the rear of the vehicle. I am just making sure because I am going to replace it here shortly. Thanks

Mine was located under the hood next to the master cylinder.

Your EA82 only has one. Whoever told you that is mistaking the older EA81 series which has two objects commonly refered to as "filters". In fact one is a filter, and the other is a vapor seperator. They do two different jobs, but most people are not aware of the difference. At any rate your manual is correct - just one for you.

You have SPFI on your Loyale - fuel injection filters are under the hood. His 87 sounds carbed, and would have it's only filter under the car near the pump.
