You can change the filter in about twenty minutes to a half hour. Do this by removing the passenger side inner fender skirt and going in from there with a large filter wrench. Cut a gallon milk container in half and use it underneath as cacth can for the fuel that will be released from the filter. Remove the plug from the bottom first to drain and remove filter. Replace filter and sensor in bottom with the new orings provided with filter. Once installed pump the primer on top as found in owners manual. Be patient pumping, it can take a few minutes. Reinstall wheel well and your done. You will get messy, trust me.

How do you change the fuel filter on a 2001 Chevy Duramax 2500?

The fuel filter is located on the passenger side of the engine, there is a water sensor located on the filter, so first u must disconnect the connector to the water sensor. Next you will need a large filter wrench to wrap around the filter and unscrew it. Remove the water sensor from the old filter and put it on the new filter (it unscrews). Dont forget to put the new gaskets you get with the filter on the new filter. Next install the filter back on the motor, and reconnect the water sensor connector. Before you can start the engine you will find a button on top of the filter that you must slowly press and release about 30 times to build fuel pressure. Try starting the truck after that, if the truck still wont start keep going back and pressing and releasing that pressure button. Make sure there are no leaks and you are all set.


What can you do to make a duramax diesel smoke?

Smoke is just unburned fuel, too much smoke is not good for the engine. Anything that causes the engine to run rich, or have more fuel in the fuel to air ratio will make it smoke. You can either put in more fuel by using a better lift pump, or using better injectors, or you can starve the engine of air (not recommended) by unhooking the turbo or putting a paper bag over the air filter. Smoke is just wasted power, a truck that burns all this extra fuel runs much faster. Note that the fastest duramax in the world blows little to no smoke.
