Fuel filter change on Sharki
|
Malcolm Matalka
Hello! I'm working on changing my fuel filter. It's a Perkins 4.108M, which I assume most Sharkis are, and I'm trying to determine if the previous owner made a mistake when they last changed it. Should there be 3 O rings or 4? The previous owner had 3, 2 in top (big and small) and one in bottom (small). Thank you! |

There have been 2 types of filters used for the Perkins 4108. My Sharki build 1982 has the later type.
 This is my Diesel filter:  Several Sharki owners have upgraded the Diesel pre-filter to a system like that: https://topperdiek.de/dl/Amel/Diesel-Separator-Prefilter.pdf The old original pre-filter is placed at the bottom of the engine room near the starboard inspection door. -- Gerhard Mueller Amel Sharki #60 Currently North Sea, Germany |
