Good job Sir...I like the idea about safety glasses..Most Important........JB.

[@kickinaddiction]

Just found out mine has a huge leak from the front connector of the fuel filter. Dripping right down on the exhaust goodness sakes glad I found it…. Thanks for the vid

[@richardrodriguez3276]

6:38 And that, my friends, is why safety glasses are important

[@thevettboy]

Chris, another great how to vid. Thanks

[@mango2112]

My son name is Chris too, another great video. I will do it on my 99 Corvette soon . Gracias amigo God Bless you.

[@jamesrobbins3285]

love the quick jacks Chris

[@zaidmohamed241]

Super informative & a pleasure to watch. Keep up the amazing content bro!

[@JohnMachado24]

Need to change mine probably next oil change, might as well. I guess I can't change the one in my 06 GTO tho, heard it is inside the gas tank..Thanks or the useful vids as always!

[@robguillen2171]

I was all set after watching your video to finally do the fuel filter on my '99 C5 - I've had the filter on the shelf for two or three years. Crawled under my car and . . . it was then I realized that the RPM transmission I put in when my original blew up a couple of years ago is much, much bigger and leaves no room to get my hands up there. To do it, I'm going to have to drop the exhaust so I am saving that for another day. Ah, well, at least I managed to get my summer wheelset off and the all-season on today.

[@Adnan-ph1et]

Thank you

[@madrew77]

Great video. Informative and straight forward. Thanks.

[@Vert-og7kb]

Thanks for the video Chris. That one thing I need to do is change that out lol.

[@oscarsolorzanolopez4670]

Muchas gracias amigo muy claros tus videos !!!!!

[@jamesmckee7863]

Great video Chris........every time I see you work on the Vette I miss mine more and more. Keep up the good work.

[@nebursalcido1867]

U said new oil filter 😂😂😂😂😂

[@jeffb243]

Good video Chris. As usual, very helpful in knowing what to do on my C5, which is my 1st Vette. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@aleeking1]

Thanks !!!!!!!!

[@leecovette6895]

Good video will be doing this soon

[@dennymiranda9484]

Ooh nice video, I would’ve never found it myself! I can see a spark plug change video coming up? 🧐

[@kevinliewer8676]

Please tell me about your lift and how you like it. Thank you!

[@gbrown4x4]

Only at start up my 98 will randomly die just as i put it in gear. Not often but at times. Got it w/ 99k 6yrs ago so im pretty sure its time to change. Thanks for the vid

[@mycorvettelife]

I would also clean your air filter, MAF, and throttle body.

[@edsoderblom5532]

Also check for vacuum leaks and dirty injectors along with Af, MAF, and TB.

[@mouradmuhammad6163]

Hi Chris Love the information that You give out on your KZbin video I live in Phoenix now. Are You going to have any type of car show or gatherings . I know it's a problem with ( virus ) are now . are You Guys getting together with a car show . Where is it posted , I like to know Thank you obeying the law with self-discency from each other of course!!

[@carycase5563]

My C5 is losing power before shifting, possible solutions I've heard is ECM, fuel pump, O2Censors...I've changed he filter regulator, catalytic converters, any suggestions?

[@NavyGunner1980]

Could you please do a video on the Jack you are using, especially removing it from storage and positioning it under the car and safely raising it?

[@mycorvettelife]

I have.

[@garydoughty7547]

I replaced the later C5 fuel filter and one line on top side is leaking like a sieve. why would this happen ?

[@avelinomadlansacay2234]

Is it okay to use a none OEM fuel filter?

[@ivanchodelrancho1572]

Nice video Chris and also you have link to the filter pretty please 🙏

[@MissionFailed2]

Bro, what is that awesome jack? I want one!

[@MissionFailed2]

Ah. I see now "QuickJack". Really cool

[@OMEGATECH]

Since my C5 is a later model I'll probably need the filter you were talking about and also the fuel sending unit might have to be changed and I'm not looking forward to it your should be a lot easier if you need to work on it.

[@bluedevilsdrummer]

You’re not able to press in the shrader valve on the early c5’s?

[@mycorvettelife]

Yes you are.

[@bluedevilsdrummer]

My Corvette Life you just figured taking it would be faster? I’ve found that there’s hardly any fuel ever even when pressurized. Makes it nice to not have to clean up so much

[@mycorvettelife]

I honestly didn’t know. I pressed it and nothing happened.

[@thomaswilson8634]

Have you rebuilt your torque tube chris

[@mycorvettelife]

It was done just before I purchased the car.

[@1wtrahan]

Wow Chris another home run , tried changing mine about a year ago could not get the d*** filter off and gave up I have to get the tool you got where did you find them or what’s the name of them. I forgot about it too tile I saw your vid just now Thanks Chris

[@ronsteitz4535]

Looked up u-tube video on 2004 Vette . It appears I have a fuel filter on frame with two inlets on one side of filter. About $70 to $80.🤔

[@ds9886]

Chris, I cannot locate my fuel filter. The car is an 03 coupe w/ auto trans. I’ve replaced the fuel filter on an 02 w/manual transmission and had zero problems locating it. Do you have any suggestions?

[@mycorvettelife]

Inside the tank. Its part of the sending unit.

[@ronsteitz4535]

Wonder if my 2004 would be same as yours Chris. Wasn’t sure of your year of Vette. I don’t believe my gas tanks are easy to get to as yours appear to be.🤔

[@mycorvettelife]

04 I believe is different. You’ll have to check but I think the filter is in the tank. Only year they did that.

[@josephjoseph4040]

Nice video Chris , are all filters located in the same place even for 04 ?? I’m smelling some gas on the driver side . Some say it located inside the tank

[@mycorvettelife]

The pump is located in the tank. I believe the filter is still in the same location. The pump location changed mid-2003. You will need to drop the entire tank to get to it, instead of it being accessible from the side like the 97-02.

[@josephjoseph4040]

Yes i think its the filter coz I’m smelling gas behind the driver when I fill up .

[@sspp3065]

So I just wanted to let you and your viewers know that the 2004 and late 2003 does not have a fuel filter. Apparently it is in the fuel tank and should not have to be changed. I discovered this on the corvette forums after searching everywhere on my the car.

[@edgardovigocastillo794]

Chriss those are the same Quick Jacks that Cossco sell?

[@mycorvettelife]

Yes

[@josephjoseph4040]

Too bad costco don’t have them in store anymore

[@jackthompson6192]

I have discovered that my 2003 Z06 is a late model that has a c6 fuel system and the filter is in the tank with the fuel pump,, so this video doesn't apply to my 03 Z06,,, so I'm going to have to let mine run until it won't run anymore,,,😢

[@lisahumphreys1181]

If you get hit so hard it almost takes off your rear end, does the fuel filter need to be checked???

[@mycorvettelife]

If you are asking this question, I think you know the answer.

[@drvinnyg7422]

What is that shop light you're using with the 3 bulbs?

[@mycorvettelife]

Harbor Freight, it’s great!

[@drvinnyg7422]

@@mycorvettelife can't find it. Could you provide a link?

[@mycorvettelife]

I had to look back in my records. It wasn’t HF, it was Home Depot. www.homedepot.com/p/308490406

[@Addictive_Manufacturing]

At what mileage do you change the fuel filter?

[@mycorvettelife]

GM doesn’t provide a mileage interval. I would say every 50,000.

[@rickss69]

No need to start the engine to check for leaks...just cycle the pump with the ignition key. Electric pump...not engine driven and no need to "rev".

[@MrBpritch100]

0 need to take off the rear tire.

[@jaddajau3799]

Lol my fuel rail is painted red😹

[@kickinaddiction]

Also yours must be a manual trans cause I don’t have nearly as much room as you do to reach up there. On auto cars you’ll need to remove the driver side muffler section.
