How to change the fuel filter on Ford Diesel Super Duty King Ranch 4x4

A video on how I changed the fuel filter on my 2008 Ford F450 King Ranch diesel truck. This same video should help anyone with an F250, F350, or F450 that are in the range of 2008, 2009, or 2010. I can't speak for the 2011 Super Duty - they may have changed how they put the filters in. This video is for the 6.4 liter super duty diesel truck

To update... I followed your video to the letter and my fuel filter change was successful. I also, barely had any fuel spill. I let the bottom filter drain for a few minutes, so when I took the cap off, nothing really came out. :) The top one gave me a tiny splash as I put the new filter on, since there was a pool of fuel. Otherwise, it was 100% successful. Thanks. You just saved me $500+

@albyva Glad the video could help. It's so much cheaper than paying a dealership or mechanic and overall not that difficult.

Wow - yeah - I definitely had to do it myself. It was so much cheaper and easier. I didn't even have to jack it up to get underneath it. The one by the drivers side frame rail was a little awkward to get to - but once I finished everything was fine.

i would have liked to watch you taking the filter cap off of the frame rail. every time i do it, a few cuss words and getting pissed off is involved.

ok so the only mistake that i saw was that you didnt lube the o-rings before you put them back in they will go in much smoother when lubed and they will last longer from not being put under as much stress when tightening them

Looks like someone took a dump on those seats. Good info.

Great video. FYI, use the new FD4617 instead of the old FD4609 set. Improved with an additional O-Ring as water was getting past and destroying injectors. Also may try using a 12" socket extension for an easier job underneath and more wrench space. Nice job and nice truck.

Was dreading the new found maintenance of my first diesel (F350 09) but your video shows it is very easy to save $300.00 at the dealer. Thanks a bunch !

Excellent video. Easy to follow. I wish you had a video for all my other diesel questions!
