The difference between fuel filter and oil filter

Difference between fuel filter and oil filter
The fuel filter and oil filter both serve to filter But there are significant differences in construction.
The function of a fuel filter is to filter gasoline, making the gasoline entering the engine cleaner and free of impurities; The function of the oil filter is to filter impurities in the engine lubricating oil system and prevent engine wear and tear; Both types of filters have a significant impact on the engine.
1、 Fuel filter
There are three types of fuel filters: diesel filters, gasoline filters, and natural gas filters. Its function is to filter out harmful particles and moisture in the engine fuel and gas system, in order to protect the oil pump nozzle, cylinder liner, piston ring, etc., reduce wear, and avoid blockage.
At present, most engines are equipped with disposable and non removable gasoline filters, with a replacement cycle of generally 10000km. When replacing the filter, pay attention to the arrow markings on the inlet and outlet of the filter. Do not reverse the filter when replacing it.
The recommended replacement cycle for fuel filters should vary according to their own structure, performance, and purpose.
If the filter is installed in the fuel pipeline, it is called an external filter; On the contrary, internal filters refer to filters installed in fuel pumps and fuel tanks.

2、 Oil filter
Most car engines use rotary oil filters, which cannot be cleaned as disposable filters. When changing the oil, the oil filter must be replaced, otherwise it will affect the quality of the lubricating oil. The interval for changing the engine oil and oil filter is generally 5000 kilometers.
Engine oil is known as the "blood" of the car's "heart" engine, so its importance is evident. When replacing the oil filter, special attention should be paid to the selection of oil. After all, the two can be said to be complementary.
