AC 5040 Fuel Filter

steve-in-ga · Jun 2, 2017

Helping my Dad start his AC 5040 for the first time in a while. Was not getting fuel to the engine. I cracked open the injector lines and pumped the lift pump for a while
and fuel started squirting out from under the hood close to the radiator to what appears to be a fuel filter. There is what looks like another fuel filter on the right side of the
engine near the injector pump. Does this tractor have two fuel filters? Also, I cannot see how to remove the filter on top of the engine by the radiator to see if that is what
is leaking.

Any and all help is appreciated.

If I recall tractor has two filters, CAV 7111-296. If NAPA/WIX filters are used make sure the top outer groove on the filter does not have an O ring in it, that's the fuel inlet. Filter top is sealed by the base groove O ring.
