Where exactly is the fuel filter on a 1986 pace arrow with a 454ci engine?

ANSWER Greetings Eric thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

Unfortunately, I cannot tell you the exact location of your fuel filter. What I can tell you is that it is an in-line filter between the fuel tank and the carburetor. Normally in-line filters are found along the frame rail of the RV. The exact locations vary by make, model and year of RV.

I would start by visually following the fuel line from the carb and work your way back towards the fuel tank. Even if you locate one in-line filter, you should continue tracing the fuel line all the way to the fuel tank. Some owners have been known to add a second in-line fuel filter to be on the safe side. In my opinion this is overkill, but some people thought that two fuel filters were better than one.

I am going to assume that you are not the original owner of this RV. If you recently bought your motorhome from a private owner or even a dealership, you might want to reach out to them and see if they can recollect the exact location.

If we are lucky one of our RVing visitors will read this page and be able to tell you exactly where to look for the filter. If they know the location of the fuel filter they can let you know by clicking on the add a comment link located near the bottom of this page.

Happy RVing
