ABSTRACT:
A fuel filter assembly (10) for filtering diesel fuel includes a filter head (12), a spin-on replaceable element (13) and a collection bowl (15) removable from the element. The element includes a casing (52) with a turned-in edge portion at a lower end. An adaptor ring (69) is supported on said edge portion inside the element and includes an annular threaded portion (71). The collection bowl has an outer peripheral wall (74) with an annular threaded portion engaging the threaded portion of the adaptor ring. The outer peripheral wall of the bowl has an annular shoulder abutting the turned-in edge portion of said casing to clamp said casing between the adaptor ring and the bowl, when the bowl is attached to the element. The adaptor ring has a plurality of spaced ribs (70) with projections that extend upward and radially outward to maintain the filter medium (55) spaced from an inner wall surface of the casing. A resilient member (68) holds the filter medium between a top plate (62) and the adaptor ring.
