    Default Changing the fuel filter

    Looking to change out the fuel filter on my 05 gmc duramax/allison. Looking for tips on it, I have heard there are things that makes the job easier.

    Thanks in advance.

    In each truck we run is a spare Delco filter, a red wrench for removing the water sensor, and a set of mechanix gloves. Its all you need, if you don't reef on the filter when re-installing...hand tight on, prime, start the truck and watch for leaks...the wrench can be turned upside down, allowing for two-handed operation of the primer, which can make for sore fingers to operate by hand - especially in cold temps.
