The procedure for changing the fuel filter on the Ford Focus 1.5 TDCI is going to be first unhooking the fuel lines from the existing filter, and then removing the retaining bolts of the bracket mating the filter to the rail. When You've detached it, You can simply insert the new one. Ford recommends the Motorcraft brand, usually a FG872. Some recommendations for when You should change the fuel filter are if You're having difficulty starting Your vehicle, or if it idles rough and frequently stalls out. Additionally, if You experience sluggish acceleration or are noticing a consistent decrease in Your fuel economy.
