Description
Overview:
The Universal 3mm Diesel/Petrol In‐Tank Fuel Filter is a compact pick‐up filter for small engines found in construction and garden machinery. Built with a durable plastic body and a fine mesh element, it helps stop rust, grit and other debris from reaching the carburettor or fuel pump, supporting smoother running and longer service life. It installs inside the fuel tank on a 3 mm (0.12 inches) fuel line and suits both petrol and diesel applications. Its small form factor-approximately 20 mm (0.79 inches) in overall length with a 13 mm (0.51 inches) body diameter-means it fits easily in tight tanks. Replaces 216985. Manufacturer Part Number: LF4024.
