Genuine GM Fuel Filters
2008 Pontiac G5
What is the Purpose of a Fuel Filter?
A fuel filter's purpose is to screen out impurities, such as contaminants and dirt, from the gasoline or fuel before it reaches the engine. This prevents the particles from entering the engine's fuel system, which ensures cleaner fuel combustion, enhanced engine performance, and engine longevity.
What Signs Indicate a Faulty Fuel Filter?
Symptoms of a bad filter include:
Poor Acceleration
A clogged filter can restrict the flow of fuel to the engine, leading to reduced engine power and poor acceleration.
Stalling
When the engine doesn't receive enough fuel to maintain consistent operation, it may stall, especially at low speeds or when it's idle.
Engine Warning Light
A clogged filter can trigger the vehicle's check engine light on the dashboard.
Difficulty Starting
It's a sign that the filter is partially blocked when the fuel system needs extra time to supply fuel to the engine for ignition if you find yourself cranking your engine more frequently than usual.
