How do you change diesel fuel filter on 1995 dodge 3500?

Answer 1

Filter is located on driver side near the back of the engine (Pain in the rear to access). It is a metal type simmilar to an oil filter It has a water separator on the bottom of it. First unplug the wires on the water separator. Twist the filter off, a filter wrench may be nessisary but they are difficult to get on the filter. Make sure gasket came with the filter. Remove the water seperator change its rubber gasket and install on new filter. Make sure new gasket is properly seated on the new filter and fill filter with freash diesel. Carefuly put new filter back on engine, avoid getting debree in filter. Tighten 1/2 turn after gasket touches. Plug in Water seperator wires Use manual primer to top off fule in filter. It is located down and back from bottom of filter on engine block. Push it 30- 40 times Start vehicle.

• If the truck doesn't start crack the nuts loose on the first three injectors (by exaust manifold). Crank engine until fule sprays out of cracked nuts. Tighten nuts and start truck.
