Installed mine last week while broke down due to bad fuel pump control module. 2018 3500 DRW Full Bed. Plenty of room to easily do this install. Thank you to Brady at VSE for adjusting and upgrading my shipping. Saved me big time! I noticed an increase in throttle sensitivity. 500 miles in and it sure is nice knowing the VSE Fuel System Saver is onboard. Dear Santa, more VSE Parts please. Cheers
Installed this yesterday. Very nice unit, and easy install. If you haven't been following there are a number of the stock filters failing completely and ruining the fuel system. Good insurance for your truck.
I don’t understand it’s new truck, and Isuzu/Japanese engine. They are extremely meticulous and intelligent, If you’re afraid that your fuel system will take a shit, do not push a lot of hp, people are dumb as hell of course you will mess up the fuel system
@@carlosierra11 That's not what this is about. This filter setup is from the Chevy Cruze diesel and the cartridge filter media is failing/tearing under pressure on stock trucks.
@@toddhagee6716 We don't have an install video out yet but one of our customers @CarsTrucksChaos made a sweet video about the whole process! th-cam.com/video/C_PhOd_9OEk/w-d-xo.html
Great video and good explanation of the fuel system. Thank you. I am concerned about maintaining the factory warranty on my 2021 3500 L5P equipped truck. I change the stock fuel filter every 7500 miles and save the box top as evidence. If there was a warranty issue and a GM dealer saw this aftermarket fuel filter system how do you suppose they might react? To the best of your knowledge has this happened? I believe that they will look for any excuse legit, or not to deny warranty. This is a system I am clearly interested in but due to afore mentioned reasons afraid to install. Your thoughts?
i am so on the fence between this kit and the fass drop in kit. both great products i feel, i like how vse has got rid of the stock filter all together, and is drainable, but also feel that fass may make a superior filter itself than say donaldson or whoever. i need to pick one either way though and get it on there
after running it for almost 3 weeks now everything is doing great low and high pressure readings ha e been same as stock levels no changes. mu only real complaint is with the instructions. there is not a good explanation of how to disconnect the fuel lines and electrical lead. it took me almost 2 hours to finally figure it out by feel since you really cannot see the connectors from under the truck. some good pics or a video of how the connectors work would make it easier. love this fuel saver better peace of mind
Sounds like a good system. I just had my fuel sensor, filter and injector replaced on my l5p. The service person told me it was due to dirty fuel. I know it's plug and play. Do you have anyone in missouri who sells and installs your product.
It makes me nervous. My truck has 10,000 miles on it. It sits over the winter for 4-5 months. Do I swap it and hope I don’t end up having issues. Or not just Incase cause of warranty purposes.
Do you recommend a specific set of pliers to disconnect the fuel line plugs from stock unit. GM really put the most complicated plastic plugs on these.
Unfortunately this will only fit with the S&B tanks as the titan tanks are just too tight even around the factory housing and this ones wider due to the dual filters
I have a LML and I’ve burnt 1L of 2stroke oil in every tank of fuel for the last 100K miles to keep the CP4 alive. Ive had great luck so far. Anyone see a issue that could occur from burning oil with the fuel? Im not gonna change my way but just curious
I've looked into this topic a bit. I think one argument against it is the 2 stroke oil molecules are too big to get inside he extremely tight tolerances of high pressure fuel pumps... and something and so forth. I read some guys run 2 stroke, and a lot of guys run hot shots "every day" additive
It would be helpful for the DIY guy like myself IF you included how to release the possible connectors that I might have!!! I had to Google it and search TH-cam for hours. I finally got the fuel lines figured out but the connector on top of the fuel housing that goes to the water sensor is pretty much impossible to remove. Maybe some helpful hint next time??? And don't show that 1/4 second trick with your hands in the way. A little help Please, I just dropped $500 and wasted all afternoon to only have to put the old system back together.

Were those safety releases on the hoses a pain in the butt?
installed this system months ago...easy installation and high quality. no issues to report
An install video would be fantastic! I’ll be picking one up soon, great video.
We have detailed written instructions that we include and will have a detailed install video coming soon!
@@runvse Just curious if you've done an install video yet?

I'm thinking the same with my 2020.
Hi Jim, did you end up getting an answer to your query? I have the exact same worries for my 22’
Can you guys please make a video on your L5P PCV upgrade kit?
Excellent system boys. I’ll be putting one of these on my l5p!!

Very informative and nice product. I will be getting one of these.
I don’t understand why gm knowing contamination is such a big issue does such a poor job with the filters. A+ for this product I’ll be ordering one
Sharing this on F.B.!!

Great info. Great product, well thought out.
New subscriber...I live in s.e. Kansas. Own a 2017 L5P bone stock truck!! This is what I want for my truck!!
We currently have a 15% sale going on so now would be the perfect time to buy!
Is there a provision for a fuel pressure gauge on the filter housing?
Sounds like a good system. I just had my fuel sensor, filter and injector replaced on my l5p. The service person told me it was due to dirty fuel. I know it's plug and play. Do you have anyone in missouri who sells and installs your product.
You can buy it directly from us!
Ordered one tonite for my truck. I've got 36k on it so far and that plastic one has had me concerned about it since day one.
had had to quit using a different model of the donaldson filters, it was made in mexico, the threads were not cut right and still had metal on the cap
It makes me nervous. My truck has 10,000 miles on it. It sits over the winter for 4-5 months. Do I swap it and hope I don’t end up having issues. Or not just Incase cause of warranty purposes.
Good info, waiting on install video
Will this fit on the L5D engine in the newest Chev 5500?
Unfortunately these particular blocks arent universal between the L5P's and the L5D's but we will have a block specifically out for the L5D's soon!
Is this going to be made for the LM2 3.0 Duramax soon?
correct
Will this boost mpg?
Do you recommend a specific set of pliers to disconnect the fuel line plugs from stock unit. GM really put the most complicated plastic plugs on these.
Needle Nose pliers seem to work best for this application, just be gentle with the plastic clips
Will this void the factory GM warranty?
I got the same identical filter in my LM2 so I’m wondering if i could install this as well
I did some research and the actual mount is different on our LM2.
I heard VSE has something in the works though
You answered my question!
Would we still have to change the probe o-ring with this fuel system?
Theirs no reason to change the O-ring on the probe, you can change it if you want but it is a lifetime part and isn't necessary to change out.
Thank you
does this work with a titan 60 gallon fuel tank that "wraps" around the stock fuel filter?
Unfortunately this will only fit with the S&B tanks as the titan tanks are just too tight even around the factory housing and this ones wider due to the dual filters
@@runvse really looking forward to when you guys come out with something that pairs with the titan tank!
Will this system work with the 2020 LM2 3.0L diesel engine in the Silverado 1500? They supposedly use the same fuel filter module as the L5P.
No, The actual mount is different. I did some digging, fuel lines appear to be spaced differently…
Available for 3.0 2023 Duramax?
It will be soon!
If I have plans to delete my l5P in the future, will that effect this system if it is installed before I delete the truck?
It will not effect the system in any way
Any dual wheel configurations or does the single wheel work for duallys?
The 17-19 blocks fit the duallys and the long beds for both 17-19 and the 20-23's
Is there any tuning required, or will it work on a completey stock truck?
Good Morning Jeff, this is designed as a bolt in factory replacement so no tune is required after install.
If your sensing water on the clean side of a filter it’s to late sensor needs to be on dirty side
Send me one Tom!!!! I wanna install it!! Lol
WHAT YEAR OF DURAMAX IS THIS FOR
2017-2022 L5p
Will this fit with aftermarket tanks from Titan or SB?
The fuel system saver will fit with trucks that have an S&B tank but will not work on trucks with a titan tank
How often you drain the water?
we recommend on your oil change interval at a minimum
Do you need a tuner to run that system
no tune is required!
Does my truck need to be turned
this upgrade will not require a retune!

I use a WIX filters on my 2019 L5P and they filter down to 2 microns.
You could cross reference the Donaldson filters and use pretty much any brand. FleetGaurd would be my choice.
It would be helpful for the DIY guy like myself IF you included how to release the possible connectors that I might have!!!
