System

NOTE: KM59 GEN1 fuel filter module return lines are secured to the module with banjo bolts.

NOTE: KM63 GEN2 fuel filter module return lines are secured to the module with a mounting plate attached to the
PLV return line.

The low pressure side of the fuel system can be measured using either DDDL or a manual pressure gauge. Suction pressure is
now measured using a prefilter cap with a test port (W470589149100). Some tests (KM59 Gen1 system only) will also
require the use of fuel pressure test plug (W470589099100). The following section explains the correct way to identify how
pressures are going to be measured on each variation of fuel filter module.

KM59 GEN1 Fuel Filter Module

1. Priming port fitting 3. Pre-filter cap w/ test port - W470589149100

2. Low pressure fuel sensor 4. Fuel pressure test plug - W470589099100
