!Before installation, confirm that:
This guide is for reference only; professional installation is highly recommended. By proceeding, you assume all risk. The manufacturer and seller assume no liability for any personal injury, property damage, fuel system contamination, or engine/injector failure resulting from improper installation or failure to properly prime the system before start-up.
This is the installation process for the FI-F-10-01: 2008-2010 6.4L Ford Powerstroke Diesel Fuel Filter Replaces FD4617,provided for your reference during installation.
Step 1:
The main fuel filter is located within the horizontal fuel conditioning module (HFCM) inside the driver's side frame longitudinal beams, between the fuel tank and the engine.
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
Step 5:
Remove the fuel filter from the filter cap and install a new fuel filter and fuel filter O-ring.
Step 6:
Apply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the new O-ring and then reinstall the filter/cap assembly. The torque is 25 Nm (approximately 19 ft-lbs); do not overtighten, otherwise the plastic cap may break.
Step 7:
Close the drain valve of the oil-water separator (yellow handle).
Step 8:
Use a 24 mm socket to remove the auxiliary fuel filter located on the right side of the oil filter housing. Use a syringe, suction hose, or squeegee to remove any remaining fuel from the fuel bowl.
Step 9:
Install the new O-ring onto the fuel filter cap. Lightly lubricate the seal with clean engine oil.
Step 10:
Then install the new fuel filter. The clip on top of the filter will "click" into the retaining slot on the fuel filter cap.
Step 11:
Reinstall the fuel filter into the housing; the torque is 14 Nm (approximately 125 ft-lbs).
Step 12:
Before starting the engine, turn the key to the "Run" position (as you would when starting a glow plug), pausing for 10-20 seconds at a time, repeating 3-5 times; this helps the fuel filter housing fill with fuel. After starting the engine, check for leaks.

Step 1:
The main fuel filter is located within the horizontal fuel conditioning module (HFCM) inside the driver's side frame longitudinal beams, between the fuel tank and the engine.
Step 2:
The HFCM includes the main fuel filter and a fuel-water separator. Place the container under the drain valve and open the valve 1/4 turn (yellow handle) to drain the fuel-water separator.
Step 3:
To prevent fuel spillage, we strongly recommend installing a 1/4-inch fuel line at the fuel-water separator's drain valve; this allows you to place the container on the ground without lifting it into the air. Completely drain the fuel-water separator and properly dispose of any collected fuel.
Step 4:
Use a 36mm socket wrench to remove the HFCM fuel filter.
Step 5:
Remove the fuel filter from the filter cap and install a new fuel filter and fuel filter O-ring.
Step 6:
Apply a thin layer of clean engine oil to the new O-ring and then reinstall the filter/cap assembly. The torque is 25 Nm (approximately 19 ft-lbs); do not overtighten, otherwise the plastic cap may break.
