Fuel and Refueling Note: The engine will not run properly if you do not install the diesel fuel conditioner module fuel filter in the housing or if the filter bowl is not tightened to the mechanical stop. Note: You will need to purge the system of air after removal or changing of the filter. See purging air from the fuel system later in this chapter. Removal - Engine-mounted fuel filter The engine-mounted fuel filter is a plastic disposable cartridge. To remove it, do the following: Note: Although the fuel system is not fully pressurized when the vehicle is off, some residual pressure may remain in the fuel system since it can take some time for the pressure to completely bleed off. Therefore, we recommend you place a shop rag below the filter connectors to absorb the small amount of fuel that will drain. 2. Rotate the filter fully counterclockwise until the peg is at the far end of the slot. 3. Pull the filter straight up from the bracket and discard the filter. Installation - Engine-mounted fuel filter 1. Install the new filter into the filter bracket. Turn the filter clockwise to lock it in place. 2. Reconnect both fuel lines. Note: Using a fuel that has more than average impurities may require you to replace the fuel filter more frequently than the service interval specifies. E163363 1. Disconnect both fuel lines by squeezing the connector tabs and pulling the lines straight off. Note: You will need to purge the system of air after removal or changing of the filter. See purging air from the fuel system later in this chapter. Purging air from the fuel system Turn the ignition key to on for 30 seconds, then turn it to off. Do this six times in a row to purge any trapped air from the fuel system. After filter service, a no start or rough running engine may indicate that air is entering the system through the filter bowl seal or drain. Make sure the drain is tight and you tightened the filter bowl to the mechanical stop. E163364 19 Super Duty (TFA)
