Hitachi ex 60 diesel filter

    Just wondering where the diesel filter and primer pump are located on the 60. I was looking online and there is mention of an inline filter inside one of the banjo bolts on a fuel line. Could any1 tell me which banjo bolt it's in as I don't feel like trying them all as there's quiet a few :-). The digger is starving itself for diesel so hope I can change filters and sort it.
    And also if any1 had a part no for the filter.
    Thanks

    Bought Hyundai digger in 07 was doing the same, cleaned the tank and put a cheap filter over the outlet pipe in the tank, am told excavators don't usually have them. Have to keep a nice bit in tank but no problems since. There is an inline gauze filter as well as the main canister filter in mine. Sorry no help on location but you should be able to trace lines.

    Have came across your problem but not that filter you mention, 2 fuel in mine, one directly at outlet of fuel tank is an inline gauze filter and then up top is your fuel filter. Both can cause your problem but most often its the bottom filter. Best change both

    Thanks for your reply , I'll get to the digger in the next few days and have a better look.

    Thanks for your reply , how do I get to the gauze filter? Is the gauze in a canister of some sort? Also should there be a tap to turn off diesel from tank when cleaning that gauze. Thanks again.
