Diesel fuel filters get dirty and require changing, just like any filter. Your vehicle’s manufacturer will specify how often diesel fuel filters need to be changed, but consider changing them before each winter. The most common ice or gel point for diesel fuel is at the diesel fuel filter. Changing your diesel fuel filter or filters before winter doesn’t guarantee you won’t get frozen fuel there, but starting winter with clean diesel fuel filters and draining the water separator helps minimize the risk.

In diesel trucks like this, you’ll have two fuel filters… the first is in the fuel line under the driver’s door.
Make sure your engine is shut off before starting this procedure.
First thing you’ll want to do is put a drain pan under the filter.
Use a hex tool or Allen wrench to remove the plug in the fuel filter housing… and let the fuel drain into your pan.
Once the fuel has drained, put the plug back in.
Use a wrench and socket to loosen the filter cap.
When the cap comes loose, sometimes the filter will be in it, and sometimes it will still be in the housing.
Remove the filter from the cap or housing.
Take the old o-ring off the filter cap… you may need a flathead screwdriver for this.
A new o-ring will come with the new filter.
Wipe down the housing and sealing surfaces thoroughly… then install the new o-ring on the cap… making sure it’s seated against this ridge all the way around.
Your new filter will snap into the cap.
Once the filter is secure in the cap, slide the filter into the housing…
And hand-tighten the cap.
Make sure the cap threads smoothly into place before using a wrench.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the cap to manufacturer’s specifications.

The other fuel filter is here under the hood.
You can loosen the cap on this one with a square drive or socket… then remove the cap.
Remove the old filter… and let the fuel that’s in the filter run down into the housing.
You’ll leave the fuel in the housing for installation.
Wipe down the housing and sealing surfaces thoroughly… and put your new filter down into the housing.
Replace the old o-ring on the filter cap with the one that’s included with the new filter.
Make sure it’s seated properly like you did on the other filter cap.
Tighten the cap by hand, making sure it threads smoothly.
Use your torque wrench to tighten the cap to manufacturer’s specifications.

Before driving, you’ll want to prime the fuel system in your truck.
This procedure will vary from one vehicle to the next, so follow the manufacturer’s specifications for your vehicle.
