My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

Yeah I already got the filer but will not be near it till this weekend. I will shoot you the model this weekend and let me know what you think.

Similar bleeding directions. Turn the key on. Open the filter valve. Wait for fuel to spurt out. Close the filter valve.

Im trying to understand the exact bleeding procedure. Is the valve you open the one on the bottom of the filter?

Yes

Did you put one on your M1010? If so I would appreciate any information on the parts from GM so that I can put it on mine. Think that it would be much cheaper and easier to get.

I was looking to this to my Truck. Thanks for all the Pics and sharing of the part numbers. It just sucks that I dont Have a NAPA close by. All these other yahoo parts stores never have anything!

What filter would be best to use as a combined filter and water seperator?

 

[Pawnshop]

The one I used has worked well for me so far: NAPA fuel filter/water separator pt#3123

Hey guys, trying to do some research before purchasing and I can't find any info on this guy. My local walmart doesn't carry the kit that everyone is apparently purchasing but they do carry this kit. It's a Attwood marine fuel/water separator. Price was around $28. How will this work for a CUCV?

Fuel/Water Separator & Canister

Or you could have got a complete stock GM one on line for 49.00 plus shipping, which includes the filter.

Are talking spin-on? If so do you have the part number?

Thanks

Since I got my 1009 in August of last year I have yet to see any problems with the box filter setup and like someone had pointed out to me on here " if it ain't broke why change it yet" and it hasn't. I was going to do the doghead mod and thats when I got told that and to date my baby has not given me one issue in that area. Now with that being said I will be the first to change these things as they fail, but don't touch until then

 

[Cucvnut]

but now you just said that so look out!

 

[fuzzpuss]

Doh!

DOH!

Why didn't you just put 1/2" to 3/8" and 1/2" to 1/4" from the mount to the hose and using 3/8" barb splice and a 1/4" barb splice. Rather than building a barb splice to adapt? Like this...

How well does it work in winter with no heater in the fuel head?
