Product Overview
A hand primer lets the technician move fuel through the low-pressure side of the system after filter service, a dry tank, line repair, or other work that introduces air. A leaking or non-pumping primer can make bleeding the fuel system unnecessarily difficult.
The hand primer is used to move fuel and purge air after filter replacement or low-pressure fuel-system service. Older Cat machine families can use more than one filter head or primer design, so physical and part-number comparison is especially important.
Key Features & Performance
- Manual fuel priming: Provides a convenient way to refill and bleed the low-pressure fuel circuit.
- Service-time convenience: Useful after filter changes or fuel-system repairs that allow air into the lines.
- Fitment-specific threads and base: The mounting interface and reference number should match the original primer or filter-head arrangement.
Part Numbers & Specifications
- Component: Manual fuel hand-primer / feed pump
- System: Low-pressure diesel fuel supply
Before You Order
Compare the primer threads/base, sealing surface and existing filter-head arrangement. Use the machine serial number or original primer number whenever possible.
