Video tutorial

In this video, see how to replace the fuel filter on an Opel Corsa C. The fuel filter is located in the engine bay, at the top right above the battery. First, disconnect the connector from the fuel pressure sensor, then clean the fuel filter with a spray cleaner.

Next, detach the fuel lines from the filter housing by squeezing the blue clips; then disconnect the line from the fuel filter and unscrew the cap from the filter. At this point, pull out the filter element and let it drain into a container.

Now insert the new cartridge into the filter and place the cap - which you removed from the old cartridge - onto the new one. Also, replace the seal and close everything by putting the ring back in place. Secure the retaining clips and reconnect the fuel lines to the cover.

Run the engine idle for a few minutes to allow the filter to fill. Operation complete.
