Fuel filter kit just before injector

Thanks a lot :D
It's now some 8.5h to go before they make me go night-night and I'm starting to feel somewhat nervous. I've never had surgery like this before...

Well. Back on topic. Tried to order the small filter yesterday from my local dealer (largest in Sweden) but it is "no longer available" for the dealers to order from the dealer network. Really strange I think to first come up with a filter kit trying to fix a problem only to shortly later remove it. Any good theories?
When one looks at the 2012 fiche the filter is there.

Luckily for me another of the larger dealers here in Sweden had five of them in stock so I ordered three from their webshop just now 8)
 
Hejsan Jocke_D,

Can you tell what is thre correct flow rate of the injector? I had a serious running problem with the engine and got it fixed by replacing the injector. Local shop that could check the flow rate and clean the injector with ultra sound is currently closed due to vacation but after that I'm planning have them do a flow rate check but need a reference value for that. My bike is 450 (2009).

By the way, my new injector (in factory packing) came with a miniature in-line fuel filter..
 
There is a feulfilterkit in the feul line off the trottel body than you can clean it if its need and keep the dirt away of the injector :D
This filter is also into the trottelbody but not to removal

its a original ktm part and is placed in the 350 exc and its the same as the husberg

part number 78141013044

greets Ap
 
I just installed the in-line filter. There is an easier way to install it than previously posted. There is no need to remove the spout from the fuel rail and mess with the o-ring.

1) Use a flat balded screw driver and carefully pry off the Oetiker clamp that attaches the fuel line to the spout.

2) Push the filter into the spout. It is a pressure fit, so push it in until it stops.

3) Reinstall the fuel line with a the Oetiker clamp that came with the filter. If you don't have Oetiker clamps you can use some dull nibblers like you use to trim tile.

Not counting tank removal and install, this is a 5 minute job.
 
Thanks DeeG, I thought I saw an easier way to do it, but I don't remember where. I have my filter, just haven't had time to install it yet. (about to move, so the garage is packed) Plan to get this filter in, the fan kit installed and some heat reflective tape on the tank as my next project.
 
After I installed mine it dawned on me that I should have used a screw type fuel injection rated hose clamp. That way I could easily check the status of the filter without destroying another Oetiker clamp.

That is for sure easier way. I installed mine with removing the spout...very hard to push it back with the o-ring...
 
Help!

I just put my bike back together and the throttle body spout leaks. I damaged the o-ring after installing the little filter.

I have a spare o-ring (thanks to a tip from the ThumperTalk post), but I don't want to ruin it as well.

Where does the o-ring go? Some mentioned using some oil to hold it in place - but where is "in place"?

The spout is necked down. There is a smaller diameter spout on the end of a larger one. Does the o-ring sit on the smaller diameter spout? Or the larger diameter one?

Do you install the o-ring in the throttle body first and then insert the spout? Or place the o-ring on the spout first?
 
I got the filter in fine, but I removed the fuel rail spout as per the ThumperTalk instructions. It is the o-ring that sits on the fuel rail spout that sits inside the throttle body. I later learned you don't have to take the spout off - which would have saved me this grief.
 
I think I figured it out. The o-ring goes on the smaller portion of the spout. I thought people were putting oil on the o-ring to hold it in place, but it is lubricate it so it will slide inside the throttle body without rolling up onto the larger diameter portion of the spout.
 
I've got one of these fuel line filters coming from my dealer. Evidently there's a trick or two to installing it. Anybody whose done it, could you please talk up what you learned, do's, don'ts, etc.?
 
Used a dremmel tool to cut the old band clamp off, put in the fuel filter, tightened new screw driver style FI line clamp from the auto parts store $1 (so I can change it or clean it later). Zero drama or issues.

If you mess around with the pinch style clamp in the box it could be slightly more difficult because you need to purchase the tool to pinch the clamp.
 
Here is a photo of the two clamp types; the Oetiker crimp clamp (and tool) on the left, and the screw type on the right. (these are actually the smaller ones needed for the internal fuel pump hoses) Do not use a radiator style screw clamp!

The filter kit comes with a replacement Oetiker clamp. I think you could use some tile nibblers instead of buying the Oetiker tool. I used the Oetiker clamp, but now wish I had used the screw type so I can remove it to check the status of the filter.

Do not remove the fuel injector intake spout as early posters suggested. Just leave it on the throttle body so you don't mess with the o-ring.

Carefully remove the old clamp. Some use a dremel. I just used a small screwdriver to pry back open the crimped part. Just be careful so you don't damage the hose or break the plastic intake to the throttle body.

Once you get the hose off, simply slide the filter up into the plastic intake. Push it all the way in and it will fit snugly and stay put. Then reinstall the hose and clamp. That is all there is to it.
 
Excellent, guys, thanks. I'm going to see if my local auto parts store has one of those band/screw & nut hose clamps.

Just be sure to ask for thye stainless-steel clamp for fuel injection. Like everyone said - don't get "just a hose clamp."
