Fuel filter replacement interval.

The manufacturer has set the fuel filter replacement interval once every 45,000 km. If you do not use your car often and your annual mileage is low, it makes sense to change the fuel filter once every three years, since its price is not too high.

How to replace the fuel filter on a Chevrolet Lacetti yourself?

Typically, most car owners turn to a car service center to carry out this type of maintenance. Although, there are no difficulties in the filter replacement procedure and you can do the work yourself in your garage.

If you don’t like to read, you can watch this short video - everything is very simple and clear:

Let's consider the sequence of actions:

1) The fuel filter is located on the right in front of the fuel tank under the underbody. The fuel in the engine system is under pressure, so the fuel pressure should be relieved before starting work. To do this, you need to remove the fuel pump fuse Ef 18 from the mounting block in the engine compartment with the ignition off: — Open the cover of the fuse box by pressing the latch. — We find the required fuse and remove it with tweezers for dismantling.

2) Start the engine and let it idle until it stops. We turn on the starter for 2-3 seconds, and as a result we will relieve pressure in the fuel system.

3) On the Lacetti, the filter element is protected by a plastic casing, which is secured with 10 bolts. We unscrew it and move on.

4) Use a small screwdriver to disconnect the fuel pipe clamp from the filter. Remove the white tube tip. On the opposite side we perform the same operation. Please note that the mounting methods on both sides are different! If you look closely, it will be clear how to do this - at the filter inlet, press the plastic lock and pull the fuel line off the filter fitting. — at the filter outlet we compress the latches and tighten the pipeline.

5) Remove the old filter. Attention, there is quite a lot of gasoline in the fuel filter!

6) Remove the protective cover, release the old filter from the clamp and install a new one. Tighten the clamp, insert the wires.

7) We begin to collect all the parts in reverse order:

• We put the tips of the fuel pipes onto the filter fittings until the clamps snap into place.
• Install the fuel pump fuse.
• Turn on the ignition and check for leaks.

And this ends the manipulation of replacing the fuel filter. As you may have noticed, in a Chevrolet Lacetti, replacing the fuel filter does not cause any difficulties and can be done in your own garage in an inspection pit or on an overpass.

Fuel filter Chevrolet Lacetti

The Chevrolet Lacetti fuel filter does not differ depending on engine size, modification or year of manufacture. From the factory, GM 96335719 is installed on the car, both sedan and hatchback. Manufacturer: General Motors, USA. Price - 450 rub. Located in the rear of the body, under the fuel tank, near the rear right wheel. This filter is also installed on Chevrolet Epica and Daewoo Matiz cars.

Lacetti fuel filter dimensions

The original GM fuel filter 96335719 for Chevrolet Lacetti 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 is located separately from the fuel pump module and mesh filter. Made in the form of an all-metal cylinder with two tubes at the edges. Reviews about the part are mostly positive. Equipped with a high-quality filter element that eliminates ruptures and does a good job of cleaning fuel.

In addition to the original one from the factory, all Lacettis are equipped with a fuel filter from: Opel - 25313359, Daewoo Lanos - 25121074, Chevrolet Aveo - 96537170 and from VAZ Vida - 96444649. These spare parts, as a rule, can be supplied from 2 manufacturers Daewoo Motors or General Motors . There is practically no difference between them, they are interchangeable. If you have a limited budget, knowing where a similar good original is suitable, you can buy the same fuel filter, only a little cheaper.

An equally interesting note is that for the Chevrolet Lacetti there is a little-known fuel filter - 19347466, price - 290 rubles. The difference from other genuine GMs is the manufacturer AC DELCO (Britain), which is a production division of General Motors. In the manufacturer's catalogs it has the same number as in the GM catalog - AC DELCO 19347466, price - 270 rubles.

It should also be noted that the most popular analogue of the fuel filter among Lacetti drivers - ST 342, manufactured by SCT (Germany) has a slightly smaller diameter of the inlet/outlet pipe (the diameter of the hole itself is the same as the original). The connection to the fuel lines is a little loose, although the car owners did not find any leaks.

Fuel pre-filter

When replacing the main fuel filter, the filter mesh (coarse fuel purification) is usually also changed at the same time. The original original spare part is not sold separately, but is supplied only complete with the fuel pump. Therefore, you can use the most popular analogue - Filter Master CT10. Price - 90 rub. In terms of quality of execution and fuel purification, it is not inferior to the original. You can also install a net from a VAZ 2110 car - Fortech FPT-05. Average price - 130 rubles. To install it in the module you need to make a small bend. Despite this, the case closes tightly.

Where is the Lacetti fuel filter located?

To replace the filter, you need to understand the exact location in detail. Therefore, we will describe in detail the place where the filters are located in the Lacetti. The main fine fuel filter is located near the right rear wheel, in the bottom of the car. The filter mesh is located directly in the fuel module itself, immersed in the tank. Attaches to the fuel pump. As practice shows, it clogs much faster than the main filter. Therefore, during intermediate maintenance, it is advisable to wash it with acetone or Carb Cleaner.

We remove the fuel pump on a Chevrolet Lacetti for replacement: part numbers and cost, replacing the mesh

Ignoring simple rules of auto hygiene can be costly. For example, a nondescript mesh that costs a couple of hundred can really ruin a family budget. This very mesh, a coarse fuel filter, is located in the Chevrolet Lacetti fuel pump module. How to remove it, how much the fuel pump module and electric motor cost, how to replace the mesh and, most importantly, when it needs to be done, we’ll find out right now.

How to change the fuel filter on a Lacetti

To access the fuel filter, it is best to use an inspection hole. If you don't have one, you can use a jack.

Immediately before replacement, it is necessary to relieve the pressure in the fuel system. To do this, you need to remove fuse EF18 (located in the fuse box under the hood). Then just start the engine and wait until it stalls, having exhausted the remaining fuel in the system.

To carry out a direct replacement, you will have to unscrew the fuel filter protection (with a socket wrench size 8). The fuel line terminal and clips are removed by pressing them with a flat screwdriver. As practice shows, they often break. Therefore, before replacing it is better to stock up on this part. The clip article number is 96434270 (white) and 96434273 (black). The average price of a part is 70 rubles.

How to change

Before you change the element, you need to know where the fuel filter is located. In this case, it all depends on the manufacturer. TF may be located:

• in the engine compartment;
• under the bottom of the car;
• in the same design as the fuel pump.

We will consider the procedure for replacing the TF on gasoline engines of a Chevrolet Lacetti:

1. In our case, the TF is located under the bottom of the vehicle, on the right side. To make work more convenient, it is advisable to remove the wheel, and the changing procedure itself should be carried out on an inspection pit or overpass.
2. Then you should relieve the pressure in the system. To do this, the component responsible for the operation of the gasoline pump must be removed from the fuse box. After this, you should start the engine and wait until it stalls.
3. Climb under the bottom of the car and find that same TF. It is mounted on clamps, so the screw should be unscrewed. Pay attention to the design - a grounding wire is connected to the TF, it should be disconnected.
4. After this, it is necessary to disconnect the couplings of the gasoline wire from the TF, that is, the pipes leading to it, there are two of them. The fasteners must be carefully unscrewed so that they do not break. In our case, if components break down, they will have to be replaced with new parts.
5. When the wire and hoses are disconnected, you can dismantle the TF. Installation of the fuel filter is carried out in the reverse order of removal. Take a new TF and install it, while putting on the pipes and fixing them with clamps. When the latches click, it means that the TF is fixed. Also pay attention to the presence of arrows marked on the TF; they must match, that is, the new TF must be installed in the same direction as the old one.
6. Connect the wire, secure the TF itself with clamps. Be sure to reconnect the fuse, then start the engine. You may have to turn the starter several times so that the fuel pump can pump in the required amount of fuel to start the engine. Take a test drive and then check all connections for leaks.

As you can see, the procedure for replacing the filter is not that complicated; it is quite possible to cope with it in 20–30 minutes. To reduce the need to replace the TF, we recommend purchasing only high-quality and original spare parts recommended by the manufacturer. Otherwise, the time required to change an element may be significantly reduced. In addition, it is advisable to refuel your vehicle only at gas stations that you are sure sell good gasoline. After all, it is the fuel that directly affects the timing of TF replacement.

Where is the fuel filter located?

Before changing the fuel filter element on a Chevrolet, you need to know about the location of the device. In the Chevrolet Lacetti, the device is located under the bottom of the vehicle. It can be seen under the front of the fuel tank, on the right.

Detailed instructions for changing the filter in photographs are given in the video below and filmed by the Auto Repair channel.

How often should it be changed?

The timing for replacing the fuel filter on a Chevrolet Lacetti is indicated in the service book for the car. In accordance with technical regulations, the device can operate for up to 45 thousand kilometers. Provided that the vehicle is refueled with high-quality fuel. But given the low-quality gasoline supplied to domestic gas stations, the Lacetti fuel filter should be replaced earlier.

In practice, shift times are reduced to 12-20 thousand kilometers.

Consequences of untimely replacement

The following symptoms will indicate the need to repair and service the fuel filter on a Chevrolet Lacetti:

1. The vehicle's power unit became difficult to start. It takes longer to turn the starter, and the engine itself starts with difficulty.
2. If the condition of the Chevrolet Lacetti fuel filter is critical and it is time to replace it, the engine will not start. At the same time, the problem can sometimes be solved by starting the car with a pusher, but usually this does not help.
3. Engine power has decreased. The vehicle takes longer to accelerate. The driver presses on the gas, and the car has difficulty picking up speed. This is especially evident when driving uphill at low speeds. When driving like this, the car may stall completely.
4. The power unit began to “triple”. Detonation has appeared, the engine is unstable.
5. When you press the gas pedal, dips appear.
6. The fuel consumption increases.

Signs of a clogged TF

Let's move on to the signs of a clogged fuel filter:

• The car goes uphill with difficulty, and you can feel a drop in engine power.
• The engine occasionally or regularly stalls, especially when idling. If the fuel filter is clogged, the injection system will not be supplied with the required level of fuel.
• Another sign is that the car may stall while parked at a traffic light.
• The car won't start. This stage is the last - if the car does not start, then the TF must be changed immediately.

Everything you need for replacement

In order to correctly change the fuel filter on a Chevrolet Lacetti, you need to prepare for this process. We are talking about tools, as well as the TF itself. You will need:

• flat head screwdriver;
• pliers;
• a set of wrenches or socket wrenches.

Fuel filter part numbers

To purchase TFs, check out the article numbers of original devices and analogues.

Original

The article number of the Chevrolet fuel filter is 96444649. This device can be easily installed in a vehicle. No additional fasteners are needed for its installation. The catalog number of the original filter from the manufacturer General Motors is 96335719.

Analogs

Not only original spare parts can effectively filter fuel in a vehicle. Practice has shown the effectiveness of some analogues. Let's look at the most popular devices:

• Valeo - catalog number 587028;
• Profit - article 15300728;
• Bosch is one of the most affordable and at the same time high-quality options - catalog number 0450905969;
• MANN - article number WK55/3;
• Champion - catalog number L255/606.

Fuel filter replacement process

You can change the filter element at a service station or yourself. This process is not particularly difficult. Therefore, you can perform the replacement yourself.

Preparation

Before removing and replacing, it is necessary to prepare the vehicle:

1. First you need to gain access to the device you will be replacing. The filter component on the Chevrolet Lacetti is located under the front part of the fuel tank, on the right. To gain access to the device, you need to unscrew the bolts of the rear right wheel and dismantle it by placing the vehicle on a jack. It is advisable to place a reliable support under the car. In this case, the Chevrolet Lacetti should be driven onto an overpass or into a garage with a pit in advance.
2. The next step is to relieve pressure in the fuel system by removing the corresponding fuse. In the engine compartment, find the mounting block and remove from it the safety device responsible for the operation of the fuel pump. Typically this part is marked with the symbols “EF18”.
3. Then you should turn on the ignition and start the power unit. After starting, wait until the engine stops completely. Then start the engine again. If it does not start, the pressure in the fuel system has been relieved. Detailed instructions for replacing the filter device were filmed and published by user Oleg Zuyeff.

Algorithm of actions

The replacement process is similar for Chevrolet Lacetti sedan and hatchback cars. In station wagon cars, changing the TF is carried out in the same way, only in this case there will be difficulties in gaining access to the device. The filter is located in an inconvenient place. You can change it yourself like this:

1. Reach under the vehicle and locate the filter device. It is fixed on the clamp, unscrew its screw.
2. A grounding cable is connected to the body of the filtering device; disconnect it and move the plastic protection down.
3. Disconnect the removable couplings of the gasoline line from the filter. Two elements are connected to the device - black and white. Their dismantling is carried out carefully so as not to damage the couplings, since they are fragile. These elements differ from each other; because of this, the fasteners are disconnected according to different principles. If the fasteners break, you will need to purchase new components, but these can sometimes be difficult to find. To dismantle the black coupling, use pliers. The part itself is located on the outlet fitting of the filter device. To remove, carefully squeeze the fastener on both sides. A white coupling is mounted on the inlet line to the fuel filter. It is removed in the same way; for dismantling, the movable mount is disconnected. After this, the part is removed.
4. Now remove the Chevrolet Lacetti fuel filter itself from its seat. Wrap the device in a rag just in case; a little gasoline may come out of it. The procedure for installing a new filter element occurs in the reverse order of removal. For installation, you need to put the tips from the gasoline pipes on the fittings. These elements are installed until they click. When installing, make sure that both pipes (inlet and outlet) are connected correctly, check the arrows on the filter housing.
5. Reinstall the couplings, tighten the bolt of the clamp securing the device. Don't forget to connect the terminal to the filter element. Replace the gas filter safety device.
6. Sit behind the wheel and turn on the ignition, start the power unit. When starting for the first time after replacement, difficulties will arise. You will have to crank the starter longer. This will allow the fuel pump to pump the required amount of fuel through the system and restore pressure. Leave the engine running for a few minutes, then climb under the bottom of the car and check the condition of the filter. There should be no traces of leaks. If there are leaks, the defects must be eliminated.

Algorithm for replacing filtering elements

To replace the filter, there is no need to look for free space on an overpass or inspection hole, just jack up the right side of the body and remove the wheels

O. Structurally, the element is located so that it is quite convenient to install and dismantle.

Additionally, you need to secure yourself by tightening the handbrake and installing shoes under two wheels diagonally.
Only after you have ensured that it is safe can you safely proceed to replacing the filter. Relieve pressure in the power system
.
To do this, you need to open the hood and find the fuse box, but it is there, and not in the cabin under the steering wheel. Find the fuse marked EF18
(it is 15A by default) and remove it from the cell, since it is responsible for the operation of the fuel system.

• Start the engine and let it run until it randomly stalls;
• To make sure there is no gasoline, crank the starter for a couple of seconds. Only after this the pressure will drop closer to o and disassembly can begin;
• Unscrew the fastening bolt of the clamp that holds the gas filter protection;
• Disconnect the terminal from the housing and remove the protection;
• Disconnect the fuel line clamps one by one, they will be different from each other and the method of connection will also be different. You should not use maximum effort, as there is a high probability of breaking plastic parts;
• Using narrow pliers, carefully remove the light-colored retainer and disconnect the coupling;
• By sliding to the right side, remove the filter from the brackets;
• Install a new cleaning element and reassemble in reverse order. Make sure that all latches click into place, indicating this with a characteristic sound. Install the terminal.
