- PLEASE READ 1ST!
NOTE: AFTER LOOSENING THE YELLOW DRAIN VALVE, IMMEDIATELY BEGIN TO LOOSEN AND REMOVE THE CANISTER. A POPPET VALVE WILL STOP THE FUEL FLOW WHEN REMOVED. IT WILL JUST KEEP DRAINING IF YOU LEAVE VALVE OPEN AND DON'T REMOVE CANISTER. Forgot to mention this in the video.

On the lower fuel bowl there is a little tab at the very top that meets up with a little tab on the housing itself. When you tighten it, these will touch, and that is the stopping point. As mentioned in the video, if you crank on it, this tab will break off and damage the filter housing. Apparently the previous owner of my truck had done just that as I watched this video to find out how to remove the bowl and after getting it off, found the housing broken at that point. Thankfully the damage is just that little area and it still seals. Get a light up there and watch as you tighten it and that will prevent an Oh Shit moment. This video was quite helpful on the lower filter. Appreciate it.
I read a few who had air issues. What I did was replace the top one first, then ran the truck a bit to purge it, then did the lower one. I turned the ignition on and waited until the fuel pump changed pitch before starting. No issues with it starting.
Yes changing one at a time then running it definitely helps. I've had a few times I've been in a hurry and did them both and she wanted to crank for a few seconds before firing. Same goes for semi trucks too we always do one at a time or else you have an oh shit moment haha
My 6.7 gelled up today in -15 and -40 windchill (apparently didn't have enough treatment added) this video was awesome! With no experience on this vehicle I had my wrench set out in the pickup and had new filters on in less than five minutes! Thanks for the help!
Best video on TH-cam. Doesn't start off with 12 minutes of crap about his cat or a story about washing socks. Just gets right into it.
Washing socks….lmoa😂😂😂
Love everything you do. Amazing photography. You and Jen and the Gus man is so interesting to watch. Just love your channel. Keep up the great videos!! God bless all of you.
Good video, thank you. PLEASE ADD A CAUTION TO THE VIDEO, the line with the yellow quick disconnect also has a fuel return line attached to it. This line is VERY fragile. It can break easily as mine did. If you break it and go to replace it please know that the yellow quick disconnect works as follows: the rectangular looking part needs to be pulled up, THEN the thumbnail looking part needs to be pushed DOWN, then it comes apart. Mine is a 2011. ps I bought 1 from my local Ford dealer $30.45, buying a backup gen Ford online for less than $20. delivered.
I started the process of changing the bottom filter as shown but the fuel just wouldn’t stop flowing!! Does unscrewing the canister break the vacuum and stop the fuel flow? It was quite clear to me I was well on my way to draining the fuel tank if I continued and I had a near full tank. Does the fuel tank need to be at or near empty before changing the bottom filter? I had accumulated about five gallons of fuel before I discontinued the filter change, opting for an attempt at a later date when the tank was closer to empty. Your reply gets a subscription and a thumbs up!!
You and a few other people have had this problem. Unfortunately I wasn't clear enough in the video that you only let it drain for a few seconds and then you remove the housing. When the housing is removed, a little poppet valve will stop the flow of fuel. If you check the description I updated it quite some time ago. Unfortunately I can't go back and edit the video. I wish there was a way to without deleting it. Glad you caught this and didn't drain your whole tank out! LOL. And you also never want to change the fuel filters when you're low on fuel. Not a good idea because you could run her dry.
If the filter stays up on the truck it will keep flowing. Unscrew the housing and pull the filter off and it will stop.
Great video! No more taking mine to the "stealership" had it with those guys. Thx again
No problem. Just make sure to read my note in the description. As soon as you crack the petcock lose start loosening the housing. Otherwise it will just keep draining fuel from the tank
What does it mean if my fuel never stops leaking out the bottom filter? After removing the bottom housing and filter. It is still leaking out.
Loosen the housing immediately once you crack the petcock loose. There is a spring loaded shut off valve that will stop the flow. Otherwise you're going to drain your tank. I updated the description a long while back but unfortunately I wasn't very clear in the video about this. If you look in the comments many other people have had the same problem so you're certainly not alone
NoNonsenseKnowHow thanks a bunch! Great video. I removed the filter and the fluid flow decreased dramatically. Still coming out but it is much less
A man that doesn't need to tell his life history. Thank you for culling out the bullsh*t that most other people on You Tube seem to think is necessary.
Big thumbs up.
Thanks! I appreciate the thumbs up and feedback
Great video! I appreciate your keeping it short, to the point and including all pertinent info. Also, 1-1/4" socket can be substituted for 32mm. 😎
I have had my 2013 F-450 platinum serviced at the dealership since it was new. Once I hit 100K I started doing it myself but I have not changed the fuel filters yet as I didn't think it was that easy thinking about purging the fuel system.. You rock man for this great video. One question is when you pull the bottom filter how do you not loose fuel from the tank?
Loosen the canister, i guess it breaks the siphoning effect.
I get so tired of 30 minute videos for a 5 minute job. Thank you guys for a great video. Very helpful and brief!
Outstanding! Really love your straight to the point approach. It is quick, but contains all the important parts.
How great is this guy!
Right he needs to make a video on every part of this truck
He says, “Maybe even throw me a subscribe.” I’m thinking what?! This guy isn’t begging like the rest of TH-cam? He’s accurate, to the point, and doesn’t try to hard sell on getting subscribers. I like it. You got a subscriber out of me. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much Jordan
Agreed! Subscribed
@@NoNonsenseKnowHowBro thank you fir giving good orderly direction.
this guy is just gold, thanks brother for the video
When I was unscrewing the yellow tab a lot of diesel was coming out way more than seen on the video any suggestions
I updated the description a while back with some extra information. As soon as you start draining it, loosen the housing and remove it. There is a poppet valve that will stop the flow. Or you can actually start loosening the housing first and then drain it
If it's the first time you're changing the filter on the vehicle inspect the housing cap for cracks if you don't you may end up like me spending an additional $3,500 to replace injectors and a c pump
Great video! Wish I would've read the description before replacing my fuel filter...I drained for quite awhile before realizing it wasn't going to stop until I unscrewed the canister. This was by far the most straight-forward video I saw on this. Nice job!
so I have a F350 2016 and the fuel keeps on coming out so you unscrewed the canister and it stopped ?
The first time I did it, I did the same thing.
I went to the parts store to get a 32mm and it was still draining😂😂😂😂
Awesome and straight to the point!! No diarrhea from the mouth! Love it!! Keep up the good work sir!!

NoNonsenseKnowHow thanks for the filter link! 48$....... paid 110$ this morning at the Ford dealer. Won't next time, thx.
Great video! But you forgot to add the part about the top filter getting Stuck in the housing if the previous owner was a lackadaisical dweeb and never changed it in 6 years.
Best 6.7 powerstroke fuel filter change video on TH-cam .. concise and precise!!
Great video. I was going to spend almost $180 at the dealership to have this done, but now I am going to do it! Thanks for the short sweet and thorough video.
Thanks for the great video, start to finish, including the 3 minutes of key cycles it took me exactly 12 minutes to change my two filters 😂 this is only the second time ever doing it an the first time took me like 2 hours !
I had the same issue as others, followed instructions to a T, got low fuel pressure warning and it was hard to start up. Also fuel pump when you turn the key on but not crank it was making unusual sounds. I tightened the bottom filter as hard as I could by hand but I figured I'd give the wrench a try, sure enough I got another turn out of it. So unless you're super strong or have a brand new truck, you might need to use the wrench for the last turn or so to prevent air from getting in. After doing this and doing the key thing 6 times again, I heard a much more normal sounding fuel pump and could hear the air leaving the system. Started right up fine after that. Hope this helps others, and thanks for the video! Saved me a lot of money! (Also fuel filters are cheap on Amazon, $30 less than my local O'Reilly!)
same exact thing for me. had to do one extra turn after getting low fuel pressure indicator
32mm socket is the same as 1 and 1/4 American socket. Thanks for the video, I was going to make one, this saves me the trouble.
My man, thanks. And make sure to check the update notes in description if you didn't do the job yet.
Excellent video. Fellas. Make sure your batteries are up to snuff when re-priming your system. We found out the hard way that low batteries will lack sufficient balls to fully prime. All worked out fine in the end.
I second. Just found out the hard way and my batteries are only 3 yrs old.
Thanks for the detailed how to. From a Chevy tech that got stuck with a Ford.
I was told by Ford every 15,000 you say every 2500
It is that easy. I do mine every other time I change my oil, need it or not. Good simple video 👍
Nice video. I’ve done this many times along with the priming sequence stated in the book.
The last time I got air that was locked and a major pain to get running again. I’m wondering if it would be best to change the lower filter first, prime and run, then do the upper ! Anyone else have this experience ?
Did that work out?
Hell yeah! Super no-nonsense video, straight to the point with all the info and tips needed to get the job done without breaking $h!t. Thanks bro!
Thanks for your video on fuel filters I own 2011 6.7 superduty (the only thing to make this easier is a truck lift.)👍
I really like your consise videos. Keep doing them.
The instructions for tightening the filter could be better . I did it the way he said and it was'nt tight enough and caused proplem . Low fuel pressure warning came on (ran like crap ) tighten till it hit a stop you can tell,other than that it is a good video!
I see you took off the housing on the underside filter while it was still draining fuel. Will the fuel stop flowing once the housing is removed or should I just plan on doing a little fuel cleanup?
Finally a video that doesn’t go on about the history of fuel filters, where they are made, what synthetic materials they are made of etc etc. on - off. Done. F yeah
Make sure y’all tighten until it stops on the frame mounted fuel filter. It has to stop.
You should always prime filters by not connecting output line on upper filter. turn key on until fuel flows out before reconnect fitting
Cl20fan: good idea about not connecting the up filter lines until verified fuel flow. Trying to change fuel filters on 2011 6.7 and won't start back.
I'll undo and try this. After I pump up the batteries!!
BRAVO! You didn't waste any time warning me to wear OSHA-approved goggles, gloves, hearing protection, respirator, and a Tyvek suit to protect myself from getting cancer due to exposure to Diesel fuel; then go into excruciating detail about all the ways one can injure themselves while changing their fuel filters!!!
Perfect, Awesome, No-Nonsense Video! This is why all the chicks dig you.
I wish ALL how-to videos were like this. Perfect editing, instructions, and well - like the channel name says "no nonsense". Thank you very much!!!
Thanks for the encouraging words!
Absolutely! This guy did it right!
Perfect vid, straight to the point an didn't waste 10 mins of my day
Very good video. Clear, concise,thorough and not a lot of wordiness. Thanks.
Perfect! I'm a Pro and I learned from you fast because your a Pro!
Ok it's about time someone had smarts enough to make a video that everyone needs without all the BS, excellent video.
That's work out good 👍👍
Ahhh HAAA. Just saw in another video. Loosen the 32mm housing 3 turns, THEN loosen the pet cock. Otherwise your just siphon fuel out of the tank.
Yeah that makes sense. I've always just cracked the petcock loose and then took the housing off. Suppose it makes more sense to partially losing it to the poppet valve shuts and then drain it
Agreed! This guy knows how to make a video. No BS and straight to the point!
i like the way this guy tells you how to fix things,no bull crap and no taking all day to explain a simple thing, thank you nononsenseknowhow..
How every tutorial video should be. Only way it could be shorter is if he didn’t tell you how no nonsense the video is gonna be.
This is to F350 Super Duty Fuel Filter replacement videos what Stairway to Heaven is to music.
I didn't get fuel out of the petcock only heard the tank bubbling... what's up with that? Nothing out of the petcock...
Thanks man I appreciate that!
Excellent. Thanks for not wasting my time and presise instructions.
I didn't see your updated instructions about breaking the seal on the lower canister and I forgot from the first time I replaced the filters. About the time that I had filled a beer can three time and was on my way to filling up a coffee can, I remembered. :)
I purged 6 times as instructed but it is still having trouble starting. I test drove it. It seemed fine. But trying to start it 30 minutes later, it was difficult again. I'll keep an eye on it and see if it gets better.
Other than that, great video.
Good you caught yourself this time. Yeah I'm sure it will be fine from here on out. That's my guess anyway. I wish I could edit the video and add a note in there. But I don't think that's possible anymore. You used to be able to add notes like that after the video was posted
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I am a pretty strong guy and I was very careful to not overtighten the lower canister. It was lined up and seemed like it was getting tight (getting jerky since working against the gasket). I tried to get to to move again by hand with no luck. I was NOT going to break it by overdoing it. When I was still having starting problems because of an obvious lack of fuel, I looked at a Ford forum and saw where a common problem is not bottoming out the canister and it can still suck air slowly. Put a 1 1/4 wrench on it and damn if I didn't get another turn before it obviously stopped. It's been half an hour and it still starts right up.
Thanks! I'd changed my filters before but I needed a quick refresher. The note about loosening the filter housing as soon as you open the yellow drain valve was particularly helpful. When I completed the air purge process the engine wouldn't start but then I remembered from the first time I changed my filters that the same thing happened and corrected the problem by tightening the filter housing one more turn. After that everything worked just fine.
Love the straight to the point awesome video.
I just want to say thank you very much for keeping your videos to the point and not going off on A bunch of stupid fucking tangents.
That's generally what I shoot for and I appreciate your comment. I put a little bit of everything on this channel but generally if it's a how to, it's direct to the point. If you're doing this job make sure to check the updated note in the description as there's a couple things I forgot to mention. thanks
My 16 doesnt have the fuel filter rest option under maintnence.... just coolent
Yeah me to why?
Nice job on video. Short and informative! The key cycle 6 times was something I would have not known and probably saved me a headache and some money! Thanks.
Thanks man
That was awesome and direct, no fluff no muff, just pure business. I can't believe you've received 25+/- thumbs down. Keep up the great work, thank you..!!!!!
Thanks man! There's always going to be haters and people you can't satisfy.
Thanks for making the video I was planning on make too. Ford is a RIP off at $200 for this easy replacement
So here is a new one for everyone, just did mine 5min ago, The first time I did it 10k ago I dumped like 2 gallons the key is like said on video to drain at yellow plug for 30sec then just fully open the case and count your turn mine was around 6/14 on a 2016 f350 Also had to remove a metal retainer around the filter with a 10mm thanks again
Gold standard for tutorial videos right here. Bravo sir.
Now thats a great video.....straight to the point, thanks brody.....
Helped me a lot on first time filter change! Thank you
Glad it helped!
I just changed both of these things and now the truck has no Turbo boost. What the fuck?
Did you scan it for codes? Never heard of that happening. Have you figured it out? Curious to hear what you found
Great video, great explanation, good pace and very informative. Thanks.
Hey man primed the fuel system by cranking it 7 times but got low fuel pressure. Any ideas why? Will be taking it to a diesel mechanic tomorrow but could I run it 15 minutes?
The shop is 15 minutes away from where I live. Arranged an appointment tomorrow please let me know soon if possible. Thanks man!
Sounds like one of the fuel filters is not sealed correctly or all the way
You have to remove a metal guard first before the lower filter housing can be unscrewed. It takes a 10 mm wrench and one bolt, then it swings up pit of the way.
Wow, a video that gets right to the point and doesn't drag on with superfluous chatting. Great job. Do more!
Thanks Robert I appreciate the feedback. Make sure to check the description with some updated notes on this if you're doing the job
YEP BIG TU QUICK TO THE POINT i did want to see you pull those hoses off, u cut it right at the point where I start feeling I'm gonna tear 1, they look really snug also I'd like to know if you can tell with these filters if old or not needing a change, I have a used 1 f450 & the dealers always say 60 120 ext point inspection but other then oil being done really all they do is top tings off, it's 2 expensive 2 change out trans, power, ext.. I did the transfer cases, trans looked really clean, power steering just not certain it looks clean, I wonder if I examine the paper closely in these ff can I tell? The bowel for sure looked pretty dirty so I would go by that, it's 2 bad they dont have a color mark or some kind of gauge on the housing of that filter.
Way to make it easy on me from this old video!!😉👍
How funny! Can't believe this video is still getting views. I figure somebody has definitely done a better job covering it in a video by now. Glad it was helpful.
Great Video. My problem wasn't over tightening the fuel filter housing, my problem was the previous person who I bouight the truck from over tighten the housing. When I went to loosen the housing it just broke right at the 32MM nut. Diesel fuel all over. Good thing I was able to order a replacement housing on Amazon that said it should be here today, I sure hope it is. I'm going to make sure I don't overtighten. Also I couldn't find the link to order filters from.
Heads up! Mine took about 8-12 cycles of the key in order to crank I ran for 10 seconds and then died because there must have been air that got in the lines!
Makes me appreciate my old 7.3. Pop the hood and it's right behind the radiator. Use a oil filter wrench and your done
I'll take the double filters and 800 pounds of torque
My fuel filter on doesn’t lock. It stays loose is this normal ?
It should spend until it hits a stop. Unless this stop is broken. And no it shouldn't be like Hand loose or anything
What does it sound like under the hood when priming? I did the cp4 mod and now I can't get it started I keep priming finally got it to start for about 30 seconds yesterday but it feels like it's sucking air possibly. But then again I'm not sure if it's just purging the air
My filter is up front in the bonnet away from rocks, stones and debris that is tossed up by the wheels. Especially a very bad place for a real 4wd to have a filter. I hope this car stays on the bitumen. Certainly need heavy protection if it goes bush.
Apart from, that a good quick way to change the filter.
this is the second time i have changed fuel filters ....this time after cycling fuel pump on and off 12 time wont start !! ANY IDEAS ?
Great video, thanks!
Amazing!!! Extremely informal !! Best TH-cam video ever!!
LIfe saving time saving video. God Bless you! Question please, if you can read this:
Have you ever heard of a Ford super duty truck making a buzzing, not clicking, but more like a continuous chopping or grinding, almost like a wood chipper. Yeah, wish I was kidding. 190k on an 2015 F450 with a dump body, 6.7 diesel. Truck starts cold and sounds purrrfect. Smooth. Within about a minute or two, this racket starts. It's not the engine itself, I don't believe but it does change tone when put in gear and neutral, but not much. Noise seems to diminish when going down the road. Also sounds like a loose nut or grille, plate or bracket with a vibration that is just plain loud outside underneath. Seems to source from driver's side. I know, this is alot to ask in words, not able to hear it, see it, touch it. Any help appreciated, will be happy to help you too.
Have you had any problem with your cp4 pump? Looks like alot of glitter in your bowl or is that all sand ?
It looks like mostly sand to me, this is actually my friend's truck though. To the best of my knowledge he hasn't had an issue with the pump yet
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow oh ok I wasn't sure I found some what to look like sand and people were saying it was metal and i need my pump changed out
Thank you! very helpful video. Great camera angles and no nonsense instructions.
Really nice nice video! Concise and too the point.
The only thing id recommend is snapping the filter into the lower housing (bowl) instead of the rail mounted pump (0:55).
The filter can get caught on the clips in the bowl when you screw it on and instead of snapping into place can break the retention clips and possibly crack the pump housing.
Ask me how I know lol
22,000 is not the right interval…
Every 10,000 miles
Or even 5000 miles… most people do them every other oil change or every oil change… this is pretty important stuff if you have a CP4 injection pump
Should read as the first line. WARNING. Don't do if your tank is full. I just drained about 2 gallons of diesel out of the yellow petcock and can only guess that the level in the tank is still filling the filter. Stopped the process for another day. Still running strong when I shut the yellow valve and put my tools away.
If you refer to the description of the video, I forgot to mention that as soon as you cracked a petcock loose you start loosening the whole housing. Once the housing drops down a poppet valve seals off the flow from your tank. If you read down to the comments, plenty of other people have had the same problem so you're certainly not alone. Wish I could go back and add to the video without deleting it completely
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Gotta it now. Thanks for the heads up.
@@grantparnes no problem man
So these filters have to be changed every 22k miles or does this depend on use? Let's say the truck gets maybe 10k miles a year or less 😰 would I still change it at 22k miles or sooner? Thanks!
I'm not sure what the recommendations are for yearly intervals. I would think if you do it every year or two years worst-case, you should be okay
This guy is awesome! I can't tell you how much I hate having to sit through someone's 5 minute intro before they even get to showing you the stuff you're there to see. This guy does it right... probably because he was sick of the same crap.
Thanks for the short "get it done" video. No need make a 15 minute tutorial on filter changes...lol!
Another tip is to make sure your fuel tank is on the full side. I've done this with a quarter tank of fuel and she cranked for a while after 6 cycles but started fine. Also I usually snap the filter into the bottom housing instead of the top like you did. Does it matter?
Hasnt for me. I always snap into the bottom housing too and yes more than a 1/4 tank does matter. Could not prime till 1/2. 😮
Thanks for the short and sweet… sooo many others with tons of oh ! Oh no ‘s ! and Bologna…. Solid help tutorial here!
Appreciate the short to the point video. Great job.
Thank you very much just transitions from a 7.3 diesel two of 2018 6.7 diesel completely unfamiliar with this truck your video was extremely helpful and accurate I’d like to thank you and God bless you and your family
What to do about the top fuel filter.? It’s not as always as it works especially when replacing.
I did exactly what this video says. 2011 6.7 powerstroke. My truck still has air in the fuel system. Truck will no longer start. What do I do?
Excellent informative and very efficient presentation. Thank you so very much❤❤❤😊😊😊
Ive used this video multiple times and I always forget to start removing canister - always draining a lot of diesel 😂
On my 2016 F250 there is a supporting bracket on the lower fuel filter that swings out of the way after removing a 10mm cap nut. Other than that this video was spot on! Thanks for posting video and parts links.
Kasey I am not a mechanic. I got a light on my 2019 F-350 for water in fuel whatever. I drained the separator on the fuel tank and can’t find the other one at the front so I’m thinking this year+ doesn’t have it. The diesel came out clean but the light won’t go away. Is it because I forgot to cycle 3 times before running it? What do I do now?
Finally! Thanks for making a video with no BS!
No prob man. Thats what I strive for. Make sure to check the updates in description if you're doing this job
