Just changed my filters 2 days ago wish I’d seen this! Kept asking myself why there isn’t a fuel cutoff abovee the filter. I ended up tossing a shirt soaked in diesel fuel as well. Greeat video! - thx!
Hi. I just finished changing my 1025R in-line fuel filter. In prepping for the job, I bought two pinch clamps which were supposed to close off the fuel line. Ones I bought didn't work, and like you I wound up taking a diesel bath :) . Your instructions are spot on, and I'm going to buy a shut off valve and replace the JD cheapo clamps with screw-ons. Should be good to go after that. Me don't feel so stupid now. Great video. Kudos to you, my man. Liked and subscribed in anticipation of more cool lessons from y'all.
Yep, 2 cut-off switches is the way to go. I didn't like how far away from the Shut-off switch he placed the filter. He is STILL going to get drenched. Not as much as b4, but still more than we should be losing if filter were closer to cut off. I bot a fuel transfer pump from Amazon for $80. minus a coupon. I am transferring diesel from the top (tank) prior to my installation this week-end
I’ve got a couple good hose pinch clamps and don’t have any problems but I’d still like to put in a shutoff valve ! I don’t know why there’s not one on the tank from the factory I use a Napa gold 3972 filter on mine it is a little bigger but it lasts a lot longer !
This is something everyone should do on any lawn tractor to facilitate ease of work on fuel filter ,fuel pump and carb.My only problem with thjis setup is that those plastic shut offs tend to leak,a good metal motor cycle shutoff cost about 8 bucks and wont leak (if you have the room for it)and work on the fuel sysrem becomes clean and enjoyable ,thanx for the vid
I have a 1023 e as well with just over 300 hours. 7 months ago I replaced both filters as you just did. I just replaced them again, after just 7 months. I can see a difference from my 2016 model to yours that's obvious! The fuel tank has a metal collar where the cap screws in and a chain to the cap. Both are Rusted VERY badly. I have an appointment to take my tractor in for service. I'm going to pay for a Diagnostic at my Ag Pro dealer. My parking brake doesn't work well at all anymore. When I depress the Locking differential lever with my left heel, there's really no difference. The Rust in the Fuel Tank is blocking up these filters. The last one I took off was a dark brown. Completely loaded with Rust. I cut open the first one that I did last year. It was a mess. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my machine in for Service at the time.
There are hose clamp pliers, easier than draining the tank. I did install a shutoff valve first thing back in 2016, works great changing both fuel filters.
The fuel filter is just one example of why JD is laying off employees, they aren't the JD my grandfather loved. They need to hire real engineers not video game experts.

Thanks for the info. I will do the same on my 1025R. The only way to make it better is to have a shut-off on both sides 😅.

I would syphon the fuel from the tank before making any filter removal. It would reduce the mess.

When running it dry, someone told me to open the choke and have torque set to maximum. Hope that's right, first-timer here....
Good idea. Was getting ready to but a pair of hose clamps (tried vice grips but punctured hose) but this is easier and cheaper.

I did my own little videos on here too. Thank you!
Nice Job,
How many hours are you up to on your 1025R now?
Why not use a fuel line clamp to prevent the fuel from leaking all over you??
Some vise grip pliers would stop that pinch hose
Good suggestion. Thanks
Great until vice grip punctures hose. Guess how I know.
@@scottchadbourne4759 , they make special pliers to clamp off hose. Snap On sells them but I'm sure they're cheaper options.

Do you have a video of changing the fuel gauge. Mine doesn't work either.
