Fuel filter for motorcycle: problems, symptoms of failure, and when to change it

Neither you nor your motorcycle are going to get very far without fuel. Similar to the effects of food on humans, the quality of the fuel can have a significant impact on the vehicle’s performance. If your petrol or diesel is full of contaminants, it will eventually clog up the fuel supply and injection system of the engine, causing power losses and damage. Even the smallest of contaminants can contribute to increased wear and corrosion. This is where the fuel filter comes in.

DPF pressure sensor: what it does, location, and faults

The primary purpose of the diesel particulate filter pressure sensor or exhaust pressure sensor is to monitor how much soot there is in the diesel particulate filter (DPF) and how well the filter performs. It does this by measuring the exhaust back pressure upstream and downstream of the DPF. By calculating the difference between the two pressures, the device helps to determine how much contaminants have accumulated and sends a signal to the engine control unit to trigger the regeneration process when the filter becomes too saturated. A high pressure indicates that there is a higher amount of soot blocking the exhaust flows whereas low pressure indicates a lower soot content.
