FAQs

What is the primary function of the MANN-FILTER WK8118?

Its primary function is to remove contaminants such as dirt, rust, and water from the diesel fuel before it reaches the engine's fuel injection system, preventing damage and ensuring optimal performance.

What types of vehicles is this fuel filter compatible with?

This filter is designed for heavy-duty diesel engines. It is specifically listed for JOHN DEERE Series 5 5055E Tractors and has cross-references for various other agricultural and construction machinery brands.

How often should this fuel filter be replaced?

Replacement intervals vary depending on the equipment manufacturer's recommendations, operating conditions, and fuel quality. Consult your vehicle's service manual for the specific replacement schedule.

What are the physical dimensions of the WK8118?

The filter has a height of 116 mm and an outer diameter of 83 mm. It is a spin-on type filter.

Can this filter be used in gasoline engines?

No, the MANN-FILTER WK8118 is specifically designed for diesel fuel systems and should not be used in gasoline engines.

What does 'Spin-on Filter' mean?

A spin-on filter is a self-contained unit where the filter media and housing are integrated. It's typically attached by screwing it onto a threaded base, making installation and replacement relatively simple.

Where can I find the OEM part number for my vehicle?

The OEM part number is usually found in your vehicle's owner's manual, on the existing filter, or by consulting the vehicle manufacturer's parts department or a trusted mechanic.

Troubleshooting

Engine runs rough or loses power after filter replacement

The fuel system may not have been properly primed, leading to air in the lines. Re-prime the fuel system according to your vehicle's service manual. Ensure the new filter was installed correctly and the sealing surfaces are clean.

Fuel leak around the filter housing

The filter may not be tightened enough, or the sealing gasket may be damaged or improperly seated. Ensure the gasket is clean and lubricated, and tighten the filter by hand until snug, then by the recommended additional turn. Do not overtighten.

Difficulty removing old filter

Use a proper oil filter wrench or strap wrench designed for fuel filters. Ensure you are turning it in the correct (counter-clockwise) direction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The MANN-FILTER WK8118 is specifically designed for diesel engines. It is listed as compatible with JOHN DEERE Series 5 5055E Tractors (Diesel, from 03/2011 onwards). It also cross-references with several OEM part numbers, including CLAAS 6005025926, GEHL 102174, JOHN DEERE RE503747, and PERKINS 26560138, among others. Always verify your specific vehicle's requirements against the OEM part number or consult a compatibility guide before purchase.

Setup: Installation is a spin-on process. Ensure the engine is off and cooled. Locate the fuel filter housing. Clean the surrounding area to prevent debris entry. Lubricate the rubber seal on the new filter with a small amount of clean diesel fuel. Screw the new filter on by hand until the gasket makes contact, then tighten an additional 3/4 to 1 full turn, or as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. Do not overtighten. After installation, prime the fuel system according to your vehicle's service manual to remove any air.

Care: Fuel filters are typically a maintenance item and are replaced at scheduled intervals, usually based on mileage or operating hours, as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. There is no ongoing 'care' for the filter itself beyond proper installation and timely replacement. Always follow the service manual for your specific equipment for recommended replacement intervals.
