Mallory Fuel Filter Series 160
PN 29238, PN 29249
The Mallory Fuel Filter Series 160 is designed to filter automotive fuels in high performance fuel
injected street and racing applications with fuel flows of up to 200 G.P.H.
The filter is installed between the fuel pump and the fuel injector's. (Note: When using a Mallory fuel
injection pump, an additional filter such as Mallory PN 29239 (3140) must be installed between the
fuel pump and the fuel tank.) For dual fuel delivery systems, the filter is equipped with two 3/8 PT
inlets and outlets. For single systems, one inlet and outlet must be plugged.
To replace the filter element, remove the lower housing using a 3/4" wrench, taking care not to bend
the internal threaded rod. Exchange existing filter element with replacement filter using the gaskets
supplied with the new element.
Before replacing the lower filter housing, liberally lubricate the "O" ring on the upper housing
with light oil or grease. Use caution when reassembling the filter to prevent bending the internal
rod.
Note: When replacing the element, make sure you use the PN 29238 (3161), which is specially
designed for fuel injection applications which require greater filtration than carbureted systems. Do
TECH NOTES:
Best to lubricate with silicone lubricant.
