Nicely done SbS Guide, thank you! Love how you showed how priming is done with this engine. I watched some other video where they are suggesting to prime by turning the ignition on (without starting the engine) several times. But that does not work with this engine.
Thank you I’m very pleased you have found it useful. Because I pre-filled the filter this one didn’t really need bleeding, but I thought it would be useful to show how it can easily be done. 🙂👍
Hi, yes it did. By pre-filling the fuel filter it removed the need to actually prime the fuel system. Started the car and ran it at a fast idle to consume any small amount of air that may have still been in the system. This will not always be the case though, which is why I thought I would show an easy and cheap way to prime the fuel system. 🙂👍
Well if it’s the same filter fitted as the one in the video and you follow the steps filling it with fuel you should be fine. If you’re in doubt and you think there may be some air left to remove just prime it the way I’ve shown. I hope you get it all done ok. 🙂👍
What an absolute disaster of a design,,A screw on fuel filter and they put it upside down and put a shield around it ,,So your forced to take the whole contraption out and apart ,,And that's before you even take the actual filter off,,
I agree they are a real pain for a job that should be reasonably quick to carry out. It is actually the right way up it just the location and like you say the way it’s mounted within a casing. I thought the Japanese were better than that. 🙂👍

Hi,
Did it powered on first attempt without prime the fuel line with this procedure? Thanks

Have to do this on my 3rd gen 2017 mazda3 next week..first time I service it myself. Pretty nervous about the fuel filter part.
