    Great job. I worked for Davco for 10 years. First generation of this unit was a 380 that the bottom party was much bigger, the 382 was introduced about 2 years before I left. A wives tale that fuel will by pass the filter is WRONG. You could run that filter till the engine will shut down. Always change the filter just when the fuel just gets to the top. Nothing on the market than match the Davco!

    I take it your name is Adam? Good job for 1st video. Good picture quality, looks like a GoPro if it is you can change camera settings on your smart phone to get rid of the fish eye and fill the monitor screen all the way unless you already have your settings the way you like it. Very clear picture and good job on your filter change.

      Thank you so much, yes my name is Adam. I am using a GoPro. I am pretty averse to all this technology, it is very much a learning process. I will work on your suggestions. I've never done anything like making a video before...I cant tell you how much I appreciate your comment. You were a main influence in me doing this.

    Everyone struggles with putting a bucket under the fuel processor’s drain valve . Install a long plastic air line on the drain valve , 1/2”NPT . Clean with ether , apply Vasoline to fuel bowl collar threads, hand tight plus 2 collar marks .

    Hey diy, I'm looking at a truck to buy but i cant seem to find the clear fuel filter case you changed here, I read semis have 2 fuel filters but I can't find the clear case filter, is that normal or should I stay away from that truck?

      @@DIYSEMI oh ok, the truck is a 99 freightliner classic 12.7, seen on RUclips with them so it should have them, would it be a good idea to buy truck and install it after or is that do damage to engine?

    Adam, how often do you change the fuel filter?

    • @DIYSEMI
      @DIYSEMI  4 года назад +3

      As needed, when the level is about 3/4 up the filter. Mine usually last about 15,000 miles

      Drain it in a cup. Will look like globs separated from the fuel

    What if after a couple days all the fuel disappears from the filter, what does that mean?

    • @DIYSEMI
      @DIYSEMI  3 года назад +3

      it's still there..the level just goes down because the filter is new and clean...it will rise as it plugs from the bottom up

      the level should go down as you drain
