That's a great video. Short simple and to the point. Credit to ford too. Easy maintenance that I can even understand and it didn't take 2hrs of explaination😂
Reminder for people that have 11-16 6.7 trucks, the fuel filter in the engine bay has only two lines and the filter under the truck by the tank is circular cartridge filter.
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE yes, my brother helped me, he just lightly pulled on it and it came out. Idk what was holding it up when I was pulling as hard as I could.
You should be able to just push the button on without your foot on the brake so the truck doesn't start then after about 10 seconds press button off. Do this multiple times at minimum five times and that should run the fuel pump thus priming the fuel filter. Then start it normal. Just like turning a key but without starting it.
Oil runs into this vertically mounted filter automatically when filling up with oil, so unnecessary. I do add some oil to horizontally mounted filters.
@@retiredandroaming really? I didn’t know this! I figured when you crank it, it fills instantly and there is a film of the old oil left on the moving parts so I never thought prefilling was a must

Thank you, yeah I try to keep it simple and not tell my life story or have a long annoying intro.
You can show us your dogs if you want. That still won't show things down too much.
Best video on how to do both of these maintenance items. Very well done sir.
Very well explained and straight to the point and no extra talk thanks for the instructional video 👍 😀

Wouldn’t you put oil in the filter itself to help prime it?
You can a lot of people say it does nothing but I’ve done it before.
Pulled on the plastic piece that holds the filter after unscrewing the 5 bolts. It came down, but not the filter?
Sorry for the late reply we’re you able to get the filter out?

Very helpful thank you
Great and informative video.
Thank you great video well explained
How do you prime a fuel filter if the truck has a push button start?
You should be able to just push the button on without your foot on the brake so the truck doesn't start then after about 10 seconds press button off. Do this multiple times at minimum five times and that should run the fuel pump thus priming the fuel filter. Then start it normal. Just like turning a key but without starting it.
I just purchased a 2020 F250 powerstroke with 30k miles and still had the factory fuel filters in place. Should I be concerned ?
No I think you’ll be alright just get it changed out asap and then maybe do the next one at 10k and then every 15k miles after that.
Great video. Thanks
How often you changing fuel filters? Always at the same time I imagine?
Ford recommends every 15k miles or I like to do every other oil change.
Where do you dispose of the fuel from the filter?
I usually set it outside and let it evaporate or you can just mix it in with used oil and dispose of it.
Burn pile
Thanks!
How often do you need to do the fuel filter?
I usually do every 15k miles or 3rd oil change
@@BLUECOLLARGARAGE Good to know. I appreciate it
I’d for sure fill up the oil filter with some oil first

How many miles is the oil changed? Thank you
I usually change it every 5k miles but most people will probably chime in and say every 7k to 10k
lol poke a hole in the bottom of the filter. Save yourself the mess
