- A fuel filter change video for the RAM 2500 6.7 Cummins. Information is added on the double filtration of the front filter located by the engine block, on micron size comparisons, just a little FYI kind of thing. These filters also went two years as it was under the 15,000 mile recommended change interval, but also twice as long as the one year recommended time limit.
I only buy good fuel, at good stations, stations that move thousands of gallons per week.
YMMV
Thanks for watching and please subscribe!!

Very detailed I really enjoy this video even though I'm only 4 11' tall I love my 2019 Cummins 6.7 I will be getting a change Wednesday by myself
Thanks Heather and I appreciate you watching!
I hope it all worked out for you.
Enjoy your new RAM!
Really quite a good video edited well, showing all the steps, I liked the info on the filters micro rate that was awesome. I remember when Tier 3 engines came out OMG the issues with injector nozzles and filters on Isuzu and Hino engines 10 microns was a big improvement but 3 micron WOW.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! Very detailed made my first time easy! Appreciated the 3/8 I.D. tube idea! A little under a quart of diesel will be lost for the rear filter!
Glad it helped!
Thanks, best one I have seen. Very clear!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for watching!
Great video! I have a 2017 and have now gone 2 yr intervals [twice] with no issues on my 6.7.
Cheers~
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed your video. If you put the extension up against the fire wall you can come down almost straight on to the top of the file filter lid.
Thanks! Good deal, next time I'll do that.
Have a good one!
Great video as always.
Thank you for watching!
Excellent video!! Very thorough!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for watching!
I just did mine yesterday, and used the exact same silicone grease from Dow, What a small world!
Good ol' Dow 4!
Thank you for watching!
Great Video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
IF you look at the rear filter fitting mounted on the truck when you take the filter off, there's a little ball valve up in there and inside the filter there is a little plastic nipple. That nipple pushes in that ball valve allowing the fuel into the filter. Because of this you don't have to worry about fuel running out when you change the filter,
Thank you for the information!
Good video. After changing the filters when you power cycle, wait about a minute between each power cycle. Mine starts up after the third power cycle right away.
Thanks for the info!
Ima order my filters now 👍
Thanks for watching!
Thanks good video .
Fuel filter interval , i can feel more get up . Big difference
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing. Will #4 work on the front as well or just the rear?
Hi Scott and thanks for watching!
Dow 4 will work on both flat rubber type gaskets and o-rings. Manufacturers recommend using motor oil and that is certainly a good practice. Using motor oil or Dow 4 will not matter as long as the filter is not over tightened.
With two fuel filters, you should be able to run it easily for 24,000 miles, great video though
I like that strap wrench. What brand is it? Good video...watched it before changing em on the 17 Ram. Thanks, Rich
Thanks for watching!
That strap wrench is a Craftsman bought at a Sears store in 2002. I used it on my 2002 Dodge Cummins.
It came in a 3 size set.
Have a good one!
I have a 2018 Dodge Ram Cummins SLT I bought last year on Halloween 10/31/19 with only 12 thousand miles i have 18 thousand miles on it now its gonna be the 1st oil change and fuel filter change on it i wanna see what it looks like at 6 thousand miles Good Video
Very helpful video but I thought you might like to hear by dumb blunder. I didn’t triple check the o-ring on the front filter housing had set properly and I suspect you know what followed. I mean I did a hand check but had nitrile gloves on so I’m guessing I just didn’t register it… I feel like a big bumb a-hole and have a mess to clean from the driveway but still better than paying the dealership $$$. Also I reset the o-ring and thankfully everything was fine, though I ordered a new one to replace it before driving just to be sure… I’m dumb and thanks
Very easy to do what you did. That particular o-ring has a habit of wanting to ride low and beneath where it needs to be.
You won't make that mistake again!
Thanks for watching!
You don't need to drain the filter completely to take it off! Front or back. Thats just a waste of time. The truck will also tell you when it's time to change the filter. If you don't trust that then watch your fuel milage, when it starts to drop a few miles per gallon then change them. I usually change mine every oil change. I use full synthetic, so I change it at app. 15000 miles. I also prime the new filters before I install them. Doing this prevents any problems getting the air out of the system when trying to start the engine after the changes.
Thanks for the info!
Me encantaría que los tradujeran a español
Is it a 28mm or 29mm socket ?
28mm for front FF cap and 42mm for water sensor on rear FF.
Thanks for watching!
I change mine at 6 months 6000 miles. Don’t care that’s when it’s done.
Low on DEF junk crap unnecessary trash... mine stays full lol
