fuel filter change out

[army98]

I'm changing my fuel filter Assy to the spin on type, question I have is other than the water in fuel light do I need to worry about the other sensors and heater? I hope not but had to ask....

forgot to add I'll have a old fuel block with all electronics still attached to get rid of, the shutoff/water drain leak, need new plastic doo hickies lol

Why are you doing it?

 

[army98]

fuel tank has rust in it and filter drain / water drain leak (suck air) currently changing fuel filter about every 800-1000 miles, spin on cost $6.00 original 18 - 24 $. Spin no is easer to change also.

You can get filter and block complete for $49.99. You need to clean the tank or get a new one. I the long run it will be cheaper. The fuel block has 2 sensors in it . Why by pass them?

This summer I'm going to replace the tank and add a 2nd one on the Pass side, I allways disliked the fuel filter setup on the cucv anyhow, prone to leaks ect....

If you fill the filter full, does it require any bleeding?

I got all mine through NAPA they looked it up to make sure it was right size and I just painted it green to match the Military look lol.
