It covers shutting off the fuel valve, removing the ring and old filter, seating the new one, and the bleeding process using the vent screw and priming pump to purge air from the line. Good for owners doing this specific job themselves for the first time.
Posted by the David Held channel, an owner walking through his own DIY maintenance rather than a dealer or professional mechanic.
Raise the hood, turn the red fuel valve clockwise to shut off fuel, remove the plastic ring, pull out the old filter, seat the new one, replace the ring, then reopen the fuel valve and bleed air from the line.
It takes less than 10 minutes, probably closer to 5 minutes.
Loosen the vent screw with a screwdriver, then pump the priming pump until diesel squirts out of the vent valve, showing the air is purged.
You need an oil filter wrench, paper towels, a flathead screwdriver, and the replacement fuel filter.
