Changing fuel filters and push start button

im still waiting on my truck but any of y'all with the push start button change your fuel filters yet? If so how do you do the cycle about getting air out of the fuel system like you do if you had a key? Would like to know so when I get mine I'm fully prepared for it. Thanks

You can push the button without your foot on the gas, and you'll bring up full accessory power which, I believe, pressurizes the fuel system.

You meant brake. But you are correct. Just push the button, wait a couple of seconds, shut it off, do it again. 6x is what the book recommends. That simply operates the electric lift pump on 'prime' mode just like a gas engine would do...it pushes air up to the engine filter where it can vent out.
