How to Replace Fuel Filter Chevrolet S-10 1993-2004 

It must be nice working with rust free trucks

This is by far the best video on changing the S10/Blazer fuel filter on RU-vid.

Wow this video provided enough information to replace the gas filter on my s10. Thank you

Great vid. Thanks. Gotta do this tomorrow. Clear, quick, concise , great camera {phone?} work and not dragged out. Great job.

Excellent VIDEO man: Thanks a lot. Have a great day!

Good video, thank you for taking the time to make a solid video!

Awesome video and explaining!! Doing mine soon!

Wow man... I'm a self dubbed "youtube" mechanic in the sense that the very very very little that I do know, I've learned from vids like these on youtube. You my friend are going to go far. The editing on your video, your very descriptive yet easy to follow narrative and especially your camera angles were perfect. Cant wait to see what else you have in store that will apply to what I need to get done on my truck!!

Outstanding, straight to the problem. Tks j

Great video. Nice job explaining everything

Thank you, Mr. Awesome Mechanic Person Guy. Your details are Super Awesome.

Ok so my line thing didn't move I unscrewed the filter abd screwed it in until.it stopped is that good enough

Super helpful. Watching under my truck right now. Done!

Great video. Thank you very much

Thanks for the video. Did mine on my 95 s10 today. I guess who ever did it before didn’t put the plastic retaining bracket back on (probably broke it) both sides were threaded too, no safety’s on my year.

Super helpful

So a black ring came out of my quick release and I can't get it to fit together again, couple black rubber washers came out too

Nice video

Can you please? . You can see us installing the gasoline filter in the 2007 Citroen Grand. Thank you.

Great video, except at the part where you say to push in on the safeties and then completely hider the view with your other hand (that was the only thing I didn't know how to do) lol

Thank you.

The other lines besides the feed line (running into the filter) - what are they? from out front to back if possible.

Any tips for the 4X4 model? there's not much space to turn wrenches because of the torsion bar

Hi guys love the content liked and subscribed av got a problem with my Nissan nv400van a think someone has tryed to gain entry possibly my alarm keeps going off wen locked now ,was on driveway which is tight fit and a heard something in evening thought nothing of it a woke in morning and wig mirror was pushed I as thou somebody was trying get down tight gap no fixable signs of entry? Am I looseing my mind? the Vans only couple years old with 24000 miles so carnt be my key or battery ?plz help

What is the part number for the oring on the fuel line that is threaded? On my 96 it's threaded on both ends and the rings are shot.

Is this the same location and process on a 2002 S10 LS 4x4 crew cab? Would a clogged filter give a hard start condition but then run ok after it finally does start? The fuel pump has less than 20,000 miles on it as I had it replaced with the new gas tank. Also just replaced the distributor and rotor caps.

I'm having a bit problem with my gmc envoy 2002 truck when I put it in drive and reverse the truck lift up and down when I select gear my first vehicle help me please

Great video, but uh... When I remove the quick release part of hose it never seemed to stop draining, as if it were siphoning the entire gas tank out. It also had high build-up of pressure even though I tried to relieve it by cycling the engine with relay out. 2004 Blazer.

I was trying to replace this filter for a friend and the 16mm flare wrench stripped the nut because it was too rusty and tight. Yeah, I sprayed PB blaster before I started, and it wouldn't budge. I bent the neck of the fuel filter a little with the force I put on it. I decided to give up and plug the plastic piece back in and tell my friend I'm not doing this job due to all lines being heavily rusted.

Gonna do mine tomorrow on my 04 s10 crew cab how do I release fuel pressure in the lines so I dont lose a bunch of gas?

Could I hook a pump on the safety clip side of filter and slowly drain the gas tank ?

do not, i repeat DO NOT pop that fitting off without relieving the fuel pressure by running the engine without the fuel pump. If that filter is even a little clogged, it can maintain pressure on one side of it. Was personally nearly blinded by just such an instance.

thank you

turn the car on and then pull the fuel pump relay and that realises the pressure

This guys sounds like a flight attendant explaining the exit plan lol

Helpful video, but experience doing this on my 2003 LS 4x4 wasn’t such a walk in the park. There is a sway bar or link that runs front to back, right next to the fuel filter. Space isn’t big enough to get any combination of wrenches, vice grips, pliers, etc. in.

It’s a good video, but you put your hands right in front of the main part I was trying to see ! I don’t know how to push the quick disconnect! Mine has rust as well! lol

Just lost my fuel pump the other day. Shop wants to replace the filter as well. Tells me the filter is $15, but installed it's $100. What a joke.

I did it like that in the first place but the front leaks. So I added an o ring. It still leaks. Cant find any wrong but no matter what it still leaks

Would this be a reason my 2003 chevy dies on me till I rev the engine and then it works fine??

I squeeze the tabs like you (don't) show there at 0:59, but then I just CANNOT pull the line off like you show @ 1:08. What the heck is hanging up on there ?

Do you need to run the tank low on gas before replacing a fuel filter

mAke SuRe yOu aRe WeArInG SaFeTy GlaSSes. Nah I like getting fuel in my eyes 😂 Awesome tutorial!

In my 1998 s-10 there is no filter there. Its not under the hood either where it can be seen. There isn't even a fuel line under where you show the filter.

Try doing this job on a rust belt s10!

1994 s10 has a different filter but procedure is the same

Went to do mine and mine squirted like a pressure washer and didn't stop coming anyone know why

I drive fords, fuel lines suck lol but it's all good lol

I think it's 94 not 93-04 s10s. Mine looks different and it's very easy to get to

Word of warning. This truck is very rust free. On trucks that have been exposed to a lot of road salt you need to handle that filter mounting brkt. very carefully if the return lines above are rusty. This can turn into a real nightmare and customer may blame you for damage to the lines. I will often carefully cut or chisel the bracket above the bolt hole so it will still hold the filter in place and still contain the lines. To much movement may cause the lines to start leaking and if the customer is not informed AND SHOWN the possibility of this happening, you may get blamed for causing a leak and have a bigger problem on your hands. I even refused a job once where the customer wasn't grasping the situation and thought I was trying to set them up for a ripoff wanting to get more money for a bigger job if I damaged the rusty lines. Believe me, the last thing I wanted was to have to replace those lines, money or not. That job sucks. If careful inspection reveals that those lines are already leaking immediately inform the customer before touching the filter and unless the truck belongs to you, you may want to pass on it because replacing the lines properly is major work . Good informative video by the way.

Please be careful I was swapping my filter on my s-10 and when I undid the clip I got about 60psi of gasoline directly into my eyes and ear , It ate my eardrum away and I couldn’t hear out if that ear for 3/4 months

Helpful but my gas lines just keep running. Had I known this would be the case and that they don’t stop even 45 minutes into it...had I known that I wouldn’t have started the process.

Just did mine, fuel didn't stop draining for whole hour.

when i undid the 16mm line nut i got absolutely SQUIRTED in the godamn eyes and face with gas. wtf did i do wrong????

Arm tight? It's 14 more torx past hand tight

It'll round off...if you don't know how to use an *open end wrench.

You hide the hardest part with your hands duh

Get off my phone

How often should you change it?
