How to prime fuel system? Does the 2012 chevy 2500hd gas 6.0 have a fuel filter to change or is it in the gas tank?

@sirfrreshh4075 Год назад

Thanks my frnd! "LoVe itt!!" 🤜🏽🤛🏾

@baldy194859 5 лет назад

I wish my filter look like that. I have that stupid quick connect on my filter which I am going to change over.

@JackRR15 7 лет назад

It's easy to understand when to change the filter based on the owner's manual but what if you buy a new car and you don't know when it was last changed? Like, should you change everything, coolant, fuel filter, oil change? If the car was running ok and whatnot

@doityourselfbri 7 лет назад

Good Question... I recommend taking a sample of each one of the fluids and compare to what the fluid looks like compared to new fluid... Lightly discolored is okay, however if the fluid is severely discolored than its probably safe to change it... As far as the fuel filter its a little harder to say, take a look at the fuel filter and check to see if it looks really old, change it, if it looks shiny then its probably ok to leave it.

@JackRR15 7 лет назад

Yeah, I do check the coolant color and grit that's a good indication. But things that you can't see, I guess like you said you just look at the part.

@badranger2004 7 лет назад

Wouldn't it be a good idea to use a 16 mm line wrench on the fuel line side to prevent the chance of rounding the nut off

@jordaneven9096 7 лет назад

yes. absolutely

@doityourselfbri 7 лет назад

I agree, if you have one..

@johnmarks7243 7 лет назад

I like getting these fuel filters to change at work. It allows me to dust of the 20mm wrench👍🏻

@doityourselfbri 7 лет назад

Yes as a professional mechanic, I know what you mean...

@chandlerfrazier 7 лет назад

Hey i noticed the battery light came on the message center when you cranked it up. I8s that a normal message because i get it every time i start my 02 after sitting for a day or 2.

@doityourselfbri 7 лет назад

It should come on while cranking, however go out as the engine starts up...

@chandlerfrazier 7 лет назад

Do It Yourself Bri alright, im glad to hear that. Been thinking about getting battery tested or a new one. thanks for the info

@mattrod15 4 года назад

What if my filter is not under the frame rail? Would it be in the tank?

@vederax2410 3 года назад

Some models have it in the tank

@Toolaholic7 7 лет назад

I always use a 5/8 flare nut wrench with the 20mm wrench.A very plugged up fuel filter is one cause of a fuel pump failure.Some 2004 GMs don't have a fuel filter,seen this with a 2004 GMC Savanna van.Amazon is going to be cut off by Dorman sometime.Dorman is not liking that they are not selling their products at Dorman's prices.Found this out from an Auto Value auto parts store rep last week,he received a notice from Dorman and it shown Amazon on the list.

@doityourselfbri 7 лет назад

Good advice....

@fahqto 3 года назад

hard to drop a client that sells that much volume as a sales rep believe me

@CaptEricS 2 года назад

You are correct... Never use an open end wrench on a fuel line! Eventually you will regret it. Flare nut wrench... Always!

@jrambo7495 10 месяцев назад

That's the old Amazon. The latest iteration of Amazon sells NOTHING BUT FAKE PRODUCTS or CHEAP CHINESE KNOCKOFFS that are either made incorrectly or made with cheap parts that will fail in less than a month!

@plainoldme7322 4 года назад

I am having a hard time finding filter info for my 2007 Silverado Classic. I find a lot of my truck parts that fit a 2006, and have not looked on my rail to see if there is a filter in the place where your video shows it. Got any clue? thnx

@kennethjackson3727 5 лет назад

Video should say 2003 and older...2004 and up have in tank filters.

@doityourselfbri 4 года назад

That's only true on the newer body style and or the 1500 models... There are very few made but the last year classic body style 2500hd and 3500 models made in 2007 have external fuel filters.

@socalcaiman 4 года назад

Maybe modify title to say "most 2006 & older" I have a 2005 Sierra 1500 5.3 vin T SLE and the fuel filter is in the tank.

@doityourselfbri 4 года назад

Yeah that would probably be a good thing to change, I have found only the 2500hd and 3500 in those later years have external filters, I want to say the 1500 models stopped in 02?

@socalcaiman 4 года назад

I’m not sure when. What I have noticed in my part of the world (So California) is that there tends to be more 1500s than other models. As these trucks get up in mileage with the years, I suspect that more maintenance will be given and folks will be looking at videos like yours to conduct those services.. I did. Unfortunately, in my case I ordered a fuel filter on line which I can’t return now for full credit without paying return shipping.

@26dredarkk Год назад

Exactly 💯

@meoff1969 3 года назад

I have no idea why they call them rubber gloves

@algray5266 5 месяцев назад

Heads up: There are 2 different fuel filters for a 2006. Chevy changed the system half way through 2006. What you are seeing here is what is needed for the first half of the year. The newer filter is much different. And harder to change.

Maybe one more step - disconnect negative on your battery to prevent any spark issues.

@aab434 Год назад

Yeah gotta love all these die hard mechanics in the comment section Purchase a super expensive wrench to remove something you probably won’t touch for another 100k miles lol You should put anti seize on the threads too since it’s a metal on metal connection to protect against corrosion Not worry about a silly wrench

@CaptEricS Год назад

You can buy a set of flare nut wrenches at harbor freight for about 10 bucks.
