Replacing Fuel Filter Mazda MX-5 NB (2.5) Miata & Service Summary

* Disconnecting Fuel Lines has the potential to cause serious Personal Injury, as well as being a significant Fire Risk. This is a relatively quick an inexpensive job for a Garage to do for you if you are in any way unsure. I am not a professional/expert, this video merely captures my personal experience and is for entertainment only * * Safety data sheet Gasoline: http://www.inchem.org/documents/icsc/...  This video shows me replacing the Fuel Filter on a 2005 Mazda MX-5 NB (Mk. 2.5) UK car, following the 7 step process given in the Haynes Manual. It highlights the snags encountered when undertaking this apparently simple routine maintenance task, as widely reported on many on MX-5 / Miata forums. The key challenge being the ironically named ‘Quick Release’ fuel line fittings which can prove difficult to remove, even with the necessary 5/16th Fuel Line release tool. I concluded that non-genuine fuel filters contribute to the difficulty as the inlet pipe is often shorter than on the original Genuine Mazda filters making inserting the release tool difficult / impossible in some cases. The official Mazda Service Checklist I have states that the Fuel Filter should be replaced every 54k miles or 72 months (6 years). As the old saying goes: ‘If it’s good enough for the guy who has to pay out on the engine warranty, it’s good enough for me.’ So, I went with a Genuine Mazda Fuel Filter and will stick to their specified change intervals. Genuine Mazda filters cost about 4 times as much as some non-genuine filters. So, if you are fitting a non-Genuine fuel filter, I would recommend measuring the ‘IN’ pipe on the canister of any filter you are considering. As the photos in the video show, the straight ‘IN’ pipe on the genuine Mazda filter measures 5cm, with the fuel line clip retaining lip being 2.7cm away from the body of the canister. This allows enough space for the release tool to be inserted between the body of the canister and the fuel line connector. This is the 7 step procedure I followed to complete the job, as detailed in the Haynes Manual: 1. Disconnect the negative battery lead. 2. Raise the rear of the vehicle and support securely on axle stands. 3. Remove the fuel filter cover. 4. Disconnect the fuel hoses from the fuel filter. Be prepared for fuel spillage. 5. Loosen the clamp bolt and remove the old filter. 6. Note that the inlet and outlet pipes are clearly labelled on their respective ends; make sure that the filter is installed in the correct direction. 7. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. Be sure to push the fuel lines all the way onto the fittings. I did NOT pull the fuel system fuse, merely followed the 7 steps described above * These are two other ‘DIY owner-install’ videos I watched prior to undertaking the task. This first one on a 2001 car illustrates using the alternative ‘C’ type 5/16th plastic release tool (as pictured and described in the Haynes manual). It also highlights just how much petrol can leak during the change, and the risk to eyes, fire hazard, etc:    • V25 - 2001 NB Miata Fuel Filter Change   The second video shows the same ‘Scissor’ type 5/16th release tool as I used, once again highlighting how awkward it can be to fit these tools onto some filter types with shorter inlet tubes; also the amount of fuel spillage:    • NB2 MIATA FUEL FILTER CHANGE   MazdaMenders quick release tool demonstration video:    • Mk1/2/2.5 Fuel filter pipe removal tool   My conclusion/summary would be that, while it should be a simple task as long as you have the necessary 5/16 Fuel Line / Air Conditioning quick release tool, variables in after market fuel filter design may cause problems. My key tips would be: 1. Drive the car until the Fuel Tank is very nearly empty to minimise risk. 2. Have a fuel canister with pour spout available and allow residual fuel to drain into it once the first fuel line is disconnected, so you are working dry. 3. Wear eye protection & nitrile gloves. 4. I didn’t pull the fuel system fuse while the engine was running; merely disconnected the battery as the Haynes manual recommends.
