I'm so sorry, to say that 04 scalade fuel filters were deleted, only the strainer which is part of the pump, if the fuel pump goes bad the strainer too, I hope this info will help.
2002-2003 only. 2004 and up is in the gas tank only!! It's a mesh screen on the bottom of the fuel pump. You will get a new one when you buy a fuel pump👍
Excellent post. Thanks for taking your time and showing the world how to do this DYI job. I have to do this this weekend to my car and this really helps.
I would only use a crescent wrench as a last resort A regular wrench won't wiggle or slip off and snap the fuel line. They are Aluminum nuts and strip easy. Good wrenches are a must.
PedalTheGlobe it won’t be since you’re using 2 wrench, one to hold it in place and the other to loosen. If you remove it before the bracket, the fuel smell will leak through.
+Tivon Lyons The Older year vehicle is on the frame, the newer year vehicle is in the tank. So if you don't see it on the side frame then its in your tank.
Guess after 04 they integrated them inside the fuel pump in the gas tank I just bought a fuel filter for my 06 though like ummm ,,,, they will sell u trash happily though
@@NutzAboutBolts Oh wow.. okay thank you. My Escalade is 3rd Gen with 107k miles.. never had any type of work like that done- I'm slightly paranoid that it will hurt the engine if I don't replace it
Hey, doew the fuel pump need to be original to the truck or can it be any fuel pump? have a Cadillac escalade ext 2002. I just know some cars require the original but im not sure for mine
Get the AC delco, that's what dealer uses I think. Make sure it's the right year, make, and model for your car. Also, some Cadillac doesn't have external fuel filter, so check your vehicle first before buying one.
my 00 Cadillac Escalade won't start after being driven to Walmart and then coming back out 20 minutes later so I think it's the fuel filter I really hope it's the fuel filter I can turn the key Forward one click and I can hear the fuel pump running I'm going to check the fuel pressure and if it's low I hope it's the fuel filter again... LOL
it can be either one, I've had an incident where the vehicle runs for a couple of miles, then dies and would only crank but won't start. It turned out to be the fuel pump... when the fuel pump goes, you replace the pump and the filter together. Lets just hope its the fuel filter lol.
B first thing I checked with the fuel pressure and it was low fuel coming out of the rail then I change the fuel filter after that it was the fuel pump I didn't drop that tank.. I cut a hole underneath the left rear passenger seat to access it
Ok great video... 👌 well done..! I was reading some the Text here and I just realized that my 07 Ext Escalade fuel filter is in the tank... I just replaced the fuel pump 2 Weekes ago and the Fuel pump relay and the starter relay and the Ignition switch... but after it runs fir a while it dies or tries to die... I don't know what to do... anybody?
meh, a lil gas to the face never hurt no one lol. Hey, you wouldn't happen to know where my sub is located in my 02 escalade? is it under the center console, or in the back? There is an aftermarket deck installed in it but the sub doesn't work with it. Not my doing lol.
Depends. In my neck of the woods (southern Idaho) they say at least once, maybe even twice, a year. It's very dusty here. Not nearly as dusty as Texas though. I bet they have to change theirs 2-3 times a year.

FYI - on the 04+ Escalades, the fuel filter is in the tank. There is no in-line filter. Autozone will sell one to you, though.
That's why couldn't find it 😑
I havent been able to find one either. But i got a wix fuel filter for sale then. Lol
Thanks tokuzumi!
Bruhhh I just bought one even though i haven’t spotted it yet -_- FML
I bought a fuel filter several years ago for my 2005.... was going to finally install it today, now I know why it was never installed..... 🙂 Thanks!!

David Moua np! thanks for watching.
Thanks a million for this video. Got it done in a heart beat.
*very informative and chill af bro... made it look like a piece of cake; doing mine tomorrow. thanks for the vid.*
Looked all along the frame rail for the filter, couldn't find it because mine is a 2004.

Wouldn't it be better to loosen the fuel lines before loosening bracket so less risk of lines flexing and kinking?
PedalTheGlobe it won’t be since you’re using 2 wrench, one to hold it in place and the other to loosen. If you remove it before the bracket, the fuel smell will leak through.
What were symptoms of bad fuel filter?
stalling and sluggish acceleration and or fuel economy is worse. sorry 3 yr late response lol
So the out wrote on the filter should go towards the motor
I'm looking online, people are saying filter is not on frame, it's in tank with pump. is this true?
+Tivon Lyons The Older year vehicle is on the frame, the newer year vehicle is in the tank. So if you don't see it on the side frame then its in your tank.
baaallllsss. That sucks.
I have a 2005 cadillac escalate ext and the fuel filter is not there... Any idea were it is?
Some say they stopped external fuel after 2001? If it’s not there, then it’s in the fuel tank
@@NutzAboutBolts maybe after 2002 because i just changed mine today thanks to your video
Guess after 04 they integrated them inside the fuel pump in the gas tank
I just bought a fuel filter for my 06 though like ummm ,,,, they will sell u trash happily though
Great post! Thx.. I might try to change my own filter soon.
Thank you for posting this!
AestheticFitnessPros np, thanks for watching!
so how do you change the fuel filter if it's in the tank?
Not sure if you either have to drop the fuel tank to remove the fuel filter inside or you can remove it while the car seats off.
@@NutzAboutBolts Oh wow.. okay thank you. My Escalade is 3rd Gen with 107k miles.. never had any type of work like that done- I'm slightly paranoid that it will hurt the engine if I don't replace it
Do you have demo for replacing fuel filter for Toyota Prius Plus?

Would this help the truck to run !?
We're is it located
Man I can’t find my filter.. I have a 05 Escalade esv platinum
Some don’t have them, so it’s only certain models and years
Hi reason for replacing the fuel filter
Over time it’ll get clog

Would this be recommend if the car has been sitting for 8 years or so?
Yes
Thank you so much for posting that.
np
im looking under my 04 escalade right now and not seeing it
04’ and newer it’s inside the fuel tank with the pump
Thanks for the video, i have a question - is the location of this filter same in Cadillac Escalade 2003
?
Yes
Thanks for the post
Trai Girtman np! :)
Fabulous!

Usually when you replace the fuel pump, you want to replace the fuel filter as well inside the tank with the pump.
What year is that escalade
+osvaldo cordova 2002, some escalade doesn't have the external fuel filter.
Thanks looks just like mine except mine is a 2006? But yea I didn't seem to be able to locate mine is it covered by anything ?
osvaldo cordova
no, it should be open just like that. Maybe yours don't have it.
Yea probably.... good video and thanks for the info bro
osvaldo cordova
np :D
great post thanks
Mario Montoya np! :D
Where is at exactly?
Some has it some don’t, it should be bottom left driver side by the mid section.
thank you for this post.
+Tivon Lyons np :D
Thanks
Isn't one supposed to purge the line before doing this? Not being an asshole, I truly cannot remember.
You can, but we didn’t. Just watch out for that fuel pressure to spray on you.
meh, a lil gas to the face never hurt no one lol. Hey, you wouldn't happen to know where my sub is located in my 02 escalade? is it under the center console, or in the back? There is an aftermarket deck installed in it but the sub doesn't work with it. Not my doing lol.
You can cover it with a towel to prevent that too. I’ve been hit once with fuel in the eye when I was removing the fuel line lol, it was no fun.
How often this filter should be changed?
Depends. In my neck of the woods (southern Idaho) they say at least once, maybe even twice, a year. It's very dusty here. Not nearly as dusty as Texas though. I bet they have to change theirs 2-3 times a year.
