Fuel filter near the turbo???

300SDL???

Mine has 3 places where fuel is cleaned.

1st. Strainer in the bottom of the tank.
2nd. In-Line plastic filter with a cardboard filter insert thingie you can see through the plastic, located on the opposite side of the engine from the turbo. Pretty close to the IP actually, it's directly in line with the fuel line coming from the tank.
3rd. The "oil filter" spin-on filter at the front of the engine just forward of the power steering reservoir.
