01 Fuel Filter

Hey all getting the big truck ready for a week in Hatteras and it is time for a new fuel filter. Do I need the new fuel line tools to remove the filter on a 01?


Any tips or tricks?


Thanks
Brian Felts

Add you info into your signature, it would make things easier when asking open questions!

I'm assuming it's a gas, then yes you need the fuel line tools. It's a pretty straight forward install, nothing special!

It's not a bad install but the springs in the fuel lines can be tricky. Get the 'scissor' type of tool - seems to be the cheapest but actually works better than my Snap On set!

Have a great time in Hatteras! It's been beautiful out here lately - little chilly at times but you'll have fun.

Thanks to all tdappleman we are staying in Waves for the spring so if we get up to KDH I may have to stop in. If I hit the lottery I will just move down and be a neighbor. Our family think that entire area is one of the nicest on earth.
