How long does the filter last?.

So far, inhouse testing has been carried out for as long as 36 months continuously with no problems. And real life examples have been personal inspected by us 42+ months old. (but by that stage REALLY need replacing.) It is our policy to recommend that filters have a lifespan of no greater than 2 years.

Does it filter out water?

No, not really/maybe/yes… ok –  lets just say no.

If after filling with fuel, you think you have some water, just remove filter from bike and shake the filter towards the ground so that the water can be flung out of the filter mesh, However the filter will initially stop water and it will rest on the bottom of the filter, But due to the nature of motorbike riding (bumps/jumps/vibration) the water will be dislodged and fall in to tank.

Can I wash it out?

Yes, the filter and its inner lining can be removed and washed under a running tap, with a application of dish washing detergent on to cloth. (All depending on the amount of dirt/debris getting filtered) The filter can be washed when needed, but if you think that the filter is not working like it used to, please buy another!

What fuel is compatible?

The cloth is made out of the same stuff as most fuel tanks, so there is no problems like that. With our testing we have covered ULP-PULP-Diesel-Race fuels BP100 etc…

Where we have seen problems with plastic deterioration with contaminated fuels, where there has been paint thinner / acetone added to the fuel (which should never be added to the fuel system) so we have seen plastic damage from contaminated fuel, but at the same time your pump body, rubber orings, etc all get damaged by the same fuel.
