Mallory Fuel Filter® Series 500
PN 29248
The Mallory Fuel Filter® Series 500 is designed to filter automotive fuels in high performance street and
racing applications with fuel flows of up to 550 GPH with a 40 micron filter element and 225 GPH with
a 5 micron element.
The filter is installed between the fuel tank and the fuel pump using the bracket provided. For dual fuel
delivery systems, the filter is equipped with two #8 AN inlets and outlets. For single systems, one inlet
and outlet must be plugged.
To replace the filter element, remove lower housing using a 3/4” wrench. Note: Do not bend the internal
threaded rod while performing this step. Exchange existing filter element with replacement filter using
the gasket supplied with the new element (be sure to remove the old gasket). It is helpful to use glue or
similar adhesive to attach gaskets to the filter element during assembly. Note: The gasket side of the
filter element is placed in the lower housing.
Before replacing lower filter housing, liberally lubricate O-rings on upper housing with light oil
or grease. Use caution when re-assembling the filter to prevent bending the internal rod.
TECH NOTES:
Best to lubricate with silicone lubricant.
