Remote Fuel Filter?
- Thread starter Riverjet
- Start date
Thought I'd dig this up... Just changed the fuel filter on my 08 LMM, after several p0087 codes while towing. What a pain in the A$$ to get to. What is the easiest way to relocate the filter? Would I be better off deleting the factory filter and getting an aftermarket filter setup? What have you guys done? I assume LBZs are the same.
I build my own lift pumps with better filtering and elininate the under hood filter and the filters i use are much cheaper then the stocker also.
I was just looking at BD's remote filter setup Henry has on his site. Anybody have any experience with it?
I'll probably just get a pump filter(s) combo and delete the factory filter. I would think adding the flow restriction of one or two filters it would be a good idea to have a lift pump to help get fuel to the cp3.
So much for leaving this one stock...

I dont have any experiance with the bd pump but if its crap henry wont sell it,not only that but everything i have used from BD has been good stuff.As far as the lift pump on your truck i think its a good thing and i have nothing to suport this statement but i was told when i installed mine if my cp3 was healthy the lift pump would help the cp3 PROBABLY last forever.I would like to believe this.
Any idea how long you can go with a stock fuel filter if you have a good filter ahead of it? Basically just using the stocker as a water separator.
while not the same platform this is what i did on my 99

This is what I have on my truck... Minus the lift pump, it died last summer and has a BD Flowmax pump in it's place now. The BD pump is the quitest pump I have ever not heard:thumb:

Got all my ideas for lift pump and filter do it yourself from this guy :hello: Thanks Albert :thumb:
Thanks for the ideas/ input guys. I think I'm going to build a setup like burndown built. Probably build one for both trucks.
