In a diesel the fuel injectors spray directly onto the cylinder walls. Some of this fuel gets into the oil and degrades the oil. Changing fuel filter every 15k miles is critical as is adding a good fuel additive. This and changing your oil on a regular basis will do a lot for your diesel motor longevity.

[@jgyrwa]

Every 15k miles! That’s expensive imo.

[@davidanderson1992]

That looks easy enough. I think I’ll be able to do this when the time comes on my 2024 GMC 2500 Duramax. I’d wear gloves though. Thanks for the info and clear demonstration!

[@CameronNorman26]

Yes ! Super simple I’m glad I ended up doing mine , yes gloves probably wouldn’t hurt. Thanks for watching!!

Just remember if you can’t do it well I’m sure your Girlfriend or Wife can do it 😂😉

[@GTOGregory]

Yes, changing the fuel filter on the L5P is crazy simple. It's like changing the oil filter, only easier! The toughest part is putting in the oil filter with the seal at the bottom. Amazon and Ebay sell aluminum housings if you crack your plastic OEM housing. Older models like the LML required you remove the right front passenger wheel well.

Nice, appreciate the video. Will definitely do this on my own now that I see how accessible it is. One question I haven't researched yet is when I called my regular oil change/tire rotation place about changing out the fuel filter when I got those other two service done soon, they asked if I wanted both fuel filter changed. Is there another fuel filter that needs periodic replacing as well?

[@CameronNorman26]

Does it not have two fuel filters? Usually one up top and water seperator down low.

So much easier with the efh attachment. Extreme filter housing. Change with a CAT screw on and you don’t have to fuck with the inside filter style. Just like changing an oil filter

[@mkorman01]

Arent you suposed to put deisle back in the filter before screwing it back on to help with priming it? Ive jist always done that with tractors idk.

@@mkorman01 I’m sure it wouldn’t hurt if you had some kinda similar to a oil filter.but the priming of the key will fill the cup before starting so either way would work

I bought the ac delco one and the wix one, they are identical. So I would say wix makes the filter for acdelco

[@jacobhohn6151]

I noticed you didn't fill the fuel filter with new diesel. I was under the impression that that is the only way to go for injector's sake. Where's the gases go that were in the filter before the system primed? Is there an automatic bleed off valve before injectors or what?

[@CameronNorman26]

Good question brother , from what I had researched on it no one had mentioned about that , but that’s some good thinking I suppose that would work better if you had some diesel fuel to fill the filter up first kind of like you would say for an oil change . I may try that next time !

[@jacobhohn6151]

@@CameronNorman26 I watched another video of an oil change so see which filter it is without going out in the rain last night. PF63 but PF26 was coming up a lot too. They are side mounted so you can’t fill them like I normally do either. Anyways, he described the exact method you used in your video. I convinced you’re right here, but it leaves me scratching my head a little haha thanks for the video man!

@@jacobhohn6151 Nice thanks for the info ,and thanks for watching! i appreciate it!

[@shutup-sr4uc]

You prime your fuel filter by turning on engine but not starting it, do that like 5 times and let it sit like 35 seconds each time' then start the truck, by doing that it's pumping fuel into the filter prior to starting.

[@jacobhohn6151]

@@shutup-sr4uc anyone that reads this, yep.. that’s how it’s engineered. Idk where the air in the line ahead of the fuel bleeds out but it surely does. Changed my own filter between my comments and everything works perfectly. About 1000 miles since the change. Also, PF63 works but is a smaller Delco filter. (A GM product) I didn’t look at what filter was used by a local shop when I paid for an oil change but it was much much larger. Point is, more than one style can work but I can verify PF63. Alright, keep it real fellas!

Change it every oil change. This way ya get max performance and long-term use of your MINT DURAMAX. My 12 GMC Duramax i have to remove the wheel well plastic to get to the fuel filter. This is a job well done by GM. 17k miles is unacceptable in my book

They charge part x2.. it’s not worth letting them do it. I drain water every oil change and filter every other. Clean Map Sensor every oil change will save ya a lil too. Havnt tried the Spacer for the Map sensor to see if it matters. Has anybody got one and compared build up with or without spacer?
