[@dr.america8822]

good vid, like how it was mentioned that the 11 and 12 model only has one, cause most 4th gens have two. thanks.

[@matt-diy]

Thanks!

[@garththomas9896]

Thanks for the video I had to do mine cause I just got the truck and my filter is so black it definitely needed it

[@rubbersole79]

Awesome. Didn't even know I needed to change that!

[@dr.america8822]

definitely need to change that in diesel, can cause super issues.

once i have everything back together i spray it down with simple green and rinse it off. helps to Identify leaks

[@brandonshurtz3632]

great video will be very helpful thanks!

For a 2012, is there only one fuel filter? No water separator filter like the 2013+?

[@matt-diy]

As far as I know yes.

[@5caretta]

29mm socket fits tighter than SAE socket on my 2012

[@MelindaMaffei]

How much fuel do you lose when draining? I loosened my drain petcock and after about a gallon of fuel loss, I tightened it back up. Am I missing something? Thanks

[@matt-diy]

A gallon seems like a lot, maybe a half gallon drained from what I remember, make sure your key is off and not pumping fuel.

[@thewhip5841]

Just curious but i followed all the steps and when i start my truck, fuel is leaking from the housing. Do you have any ideas what it could be?

[@matt-diy]

Not sure, maybe your cap is on wrong or not tight?

[@Christinme03]

Shouldn’t you prime the filter first? Soak the filter in Diesel?

[@matt-diy]

Might make first start up a little easier.

[@brentbarnett9224]

I fill the canaster up with seafoam after I install the new filter. Then close it up. Fires right up. let run a few mins and shut it down so the seafoam can sit in the injectors for a min.

[@tbone0785]

You don't have to do that on the Ram. Cycle the key roughly 10 times to put power to the fuel pump, which will fill the canister. Will take a little more cranking than usual as the air is bled from the system. But after that it'll be fine

ThankYou sir 👍🏻
