Donaldson Fuel Filter / Water Separator

Protect your engine with clean fuel for your engine

Donaldson fuel filters use the best quality components to clean the dirt and grime which accumulates in your fuel. From when the fuel is produced, it endures long periods of time spent inside fuel tankers, trucks, stored at the petrol station and then sits in your fuel tank. All of these are places your fuel can collect dirt and become contaminated. Without a quality fuel filter these contaminants can pose a threat to vital engine components such as fuel injectors and lead to expensive, premature wear, fuel leaks or even a car that won't run at all. Thanks to Donaldson's use of heavy-duty components including baffle plates, seams, can housings, liners and springs, these fuel filters are built to last and built to perform, feeding your engine clean fuel every time you service your car.

When it comes to the routine maintenance of your car, filter changes should never be looked over. Since creating the first effective air filtration system for a farmer's tractor back in 1915, Donaldson have studied and perfected the art of filtration for applications ranging from heavy machinery, military applications and of course automotive air, oil and fuel filters for popular on and off-road engines. For over 100 years Donaldson have been studying and refining their filtration technology for the constantly evolving automotive market in order to meet strict OEM guidelines and regulations.

We recommend changing your fuel filter every 20,000 kms or once a year for the average driver, for those driving older cars it can be necessary to change your filter more regularly due to older fuel tanks which are likely to have some corrosion. Changing your fuel filter is also a great, low-cost service part you can change to help rule out symptoms of a bad fuel filter such as a lack of power, misfire, hesitation, hard starting or a bad idle as a result of poor fuel supply from a blocked fuel filter.
