Remove the fan duct by releasing the two plastic clips. Take out the battery housing and the ECU. At this point, you can disconnect the electrical connectors of the fuel filter and the two fuel lines. Remove the fuel filter mounting bolts and take out the assembly. Remove the two 12 mm bolts and extract the filter. Remove the sensor at the bottom of the unit and drain any fuel still in the filter.
