I Just changed my fuel filter. Old filter had 9665 miles on it. Truck now has 38,879 miles.
I took the old filter apart by notching the outer edged with a pair of tin snips. Pulled outer edge away from plastic housing and removed filter element from housing shell. I noticed RUST colored granular particles in the bottom of the filter housing. What is this? Filter paper was black on the lower half and sides where it flows down from above.
I counted number of pumps on the primer with new filter. It took fourty pumps until a small amount of fuel came from bleed screw. Started and ran fine the first time. (No need to pre-fill the new filter) I'll attempt to ad photos once I figure it out. (any suggestions would be great)
