Review on πŸ” Cummins Filtration FS43257 Fuel Filter, 1 Pack - Premium Filtration for Optimal Engine Performance by Andrew Aldana

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for trucks and lorries

Filter fits perfectly I have removed and replaced the original factory filter which does not have a replaceable filter element, this went relatively well. I removed the inner fender liner, which isn't too hard as it's only held on by about 5 or 6 bolts, and then lifted the truck up so the wheel dangles freely and the suspension is fully extended. I removed the wheel and tire for easier access, but a younger and more agile person may not need this. The hardest part for me was unplugging the water detector, but then it came loose from my grip. I installed the new one the same way, making sure the fuel drain and water sensor were tight. I screwed it in and hand tightened before tightening the last half inch as specified with a short 1/2" drive extension. It took a few turns of the starter to restore fuel but it started and checked. for a leak, there is no leak. Overall it took me just over an hour to replace it. It would have taken less time but my grandson helped me and you know.;-)

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors
