I have removed the fuel tank several times, and I saw in the fule line just one quick disconnector. So teh Fuel filter must be in the fuel tank right before the fuel pump. If you turn the fuel tank upside down, you can remove it and replace/clean it.

I don't know to be honest, I just know they told me the mothership changed their minds about replacing it.
It's been a while, back in early November when the dealer documented it. Dealer called me last week and setup the appointment to replace it.
I should be by there this weekend, I'll see if anyone knows if it's an upgraded part

Just picked mine up from the shop after having it replaced too. Now I need to get used to it being so quiet. Haha.

The fuel filter is at the bottom of the tank, which is pretty much where all of the sediment is going to be. The filter will suck all of this up and get clogged up very easily apparently. It's a good position I suppose especially if you're getting fuel from a poor country or something backwoods
My question is? I've been getting nothing but top-tier fuel from reputable fuel providers. Is this truly dirty fuel sediment? Or is the fuel tank falling apart from within. 🤷🏼♂️

After a 3 month battle with HD, my new fuel pump arrived at the dealer yesterday. Fingers crossed it does the trick. I won't know until spring if its working but optimistic. It's currently resides in Calgary Harley, 2500 miles from my house and deep in the heart of winter.
