EE 249 Fuel Filter

EE-249 Diesel Fuel Filter

Safeguard your fuel injection system with the EE-249 Fuel Filter, a premium replacement designed for high-efficiency separation of water and contaminants.

This filter is a direct replacement for the Mitsubishi MB 220900 and is essential for preventing injector clogging and engine power loss, particularly in diesel engines where fuel purity is critical.

Key Features:

  • Superior Water Separation: Effectively strips moisture from diesel fuel to prevent rust and microbial growth.

  • High-Micron Filtration: High-grade media traps dirt, rust, and particulate matter.

  • Sensor Port Ready: Features the correct bottom threading to accept your vehicle’s existing water sensor or drain plug (M36x1.5).

  • Heavy-Duty Canister: Designed to withstand high pressure and vibration in off-road and industrial environments.


Compatibility & Cross-Reference Guide

The EE-249 is a widely used fuel filter (Spin-on type) compatible with many Japanese diesel vehicles, forklifts, and light trucks.
