Secondary Fuel Filter Hilux/Fortuner

Just installed a Fuel Manager Secondary Fuel Filter Kit from Diesel Care $330 plus post.
I now see the same kit is available from Baileys Diesel $275 plus post.
Those intending to install the same check out both before commiting.

Is this something that is worth doing ?

Absolutely!
Cheers Gipsy :D although I'm sure somebody will challenge that :lol: even Einstein wasn't certain of his theories.

living in Zimbabwe our fuel comes from South Africa
i insisted that a good quality secondary filter installed from the day i picked it up
all the Thailand units (Revos) coming into Zimbabwe now have them installed in Zimbabwe
we cannot afford for an injector pump to go down because that would be a pick up down for months waiting for the spares
we use a 50ppm fuel which is good quality and clean from the fuel stations
cost was US$350 Installed

Does the installation of this filter stop you from installing a secondary battery? I haven't been able to find a picture of one installed.

Mine was a bit of a drama to fit on the same side due to second battery and the ctek dc-dc being mounted in the way so went across to the other side. Works well, takes a little to prime first up. made a bracket out of a bit of flat.
