Duramax Fuel Filter Delete Installation!

[@snowboardguy1233]

My truck had a 165 on it when I bought it with this delete bowl on it. Filter head had a bolt snap off on the primer plunger. So put a new head on it. Little did I know I had to remove the check ball on the new housing. Lmao. Took it for a drive and it threw codes. Came back and saw a forum post about factory filter having a thing that pushes the ball up. Then I found this video to confirm. Glad to know I wasn’t crazy!

Happy the video helped, and that you got that taken care of!

I’ve wasted a whole fucking day trying to prime my truck because I didn’t know there was a check ball that needed to be removed! 😩

[@FASSFuelSystems]

We completely understand where you're coming from.

I’m new to my duramax and I hate having to replace the filter, if I do this delete what happens to the filter? Is there something else needed?

[@FASSFuelSystems]

Great question, and deleting the filter housing will eliminate the filter. Once deleted you shouldn't need anything else.

WILL THIS WORK ON A 2006 TOPKICK WITH A DURAMAX

[@FASSFuelSystems]

It sure will!

[@codymarion1495]

Yeah I just can't seem to understand how or why this is an "upgrade".

[@FASSFuelSystems]

Totally understand where your coming from here sir. With the addition of the FASS there really isn't a need for the factory filter, and this will eliminate that for you. By doing this it will save money on your filters as well eliminating the need to replace your factory fuel filter every 5-8k miles. If you have any other questions, or need anything at all you are always welcome to reach out to us via our tech line as well. 1-866-769-3747. Thank you sir!

If someone is to install a pressure guage, would it be easier to screw it on after installing the bowl?

[@FASSFuelSystems]

Hi there! Our service team would recommend screwing the gauge in after installing the DFD. If they can help with anything else, don't hesitate to shoot them an email at [e-mail], or give us a call at [phone]! Thank you!

I left that plastic cover and 2 screws should I be worried?

Hey Logan, just to double-check if you don't mind I would suggest giving our service team a call at 1-866-769-3747. Thank you!

[@surfjat15]

can you still bleed the system with this delete i. place ?

[@FASSFuelSystems]

That's correct! You'll still be able to remove any air from your fuel system by adjusting the FASS filters. If you have any questions on the priming process, give us a ring at 636-433-5410!

@@FASSFuelSystems I don’t own a FASS. But I’m running a AirDog 165G. And 3months (now ) my factory filter is leaking 🤦🏻‍♂️. So can’t you just completely remove the factory one ? Vs using a delete style kit like this ? I understand this FASS kit is probably a better option as you can always go right back stock. But just curious if it’s possible without any issues
