Good afternoon Ryan . I enjoy watching your videos . I do most of my truck repairs just by learning new tricks from you . I have a 2007 Freightliner Century with a Detroit 60 14 L in it . I have been having a problem with my Davco fuel and water separator unit . I installed a new filter in it .After 60 miles of driving , the fuel keeps getting lower than the fuel lines sending air with fuel to the injectors causing loss of power , shacking and white smoke. I replaced the filter again , I replaced all the fuel lines from the tanks all the way to the Davco unit and back ,I also replaced the fuel pump plus the the fuel lines ,I checked all connections and made sure that there is no air or fuel leak anywhere . The problem still exist . I have been topping the container with fuel half way through my trips so I don't mess up the injectors. repair shops couldn't find the problem ,some of them suggested that I replace the whole water separator unit . So before I buy and replace a new unit , I decided to get your advice first . Thank you.

Other then not lubing the o rings up this is perfect practice (NEW GUYS NOTICE HOW TO HOLDS DOWN THE FILTER HOUSING AS HE SPINS THE RING TIGHT!!)

I typically don’t live the o rings on this type. It is not necessary

Hi . I like your videos! I have Detroit series 60 12,7 liters, and I have only water separator and no fuel filter , I know some guys install full filter by themselves, should I do it to? What suggestions would you give. Thank you. Vj

@youtubeisawesome2487 Жыл бұрын

brake cleaner makes the plastic turn cloudy and should never be used on the plastic, the spring was broken or needed stretch, it had the wrong filter in it for that engine, you didnt clean the filter housing surface, once it is started you should check for fuel being above the black ring for it not sucking air, hopefully the filter you installed is a 25 micron and correct for that engine

@1965clement 8 ай бұрын

why does the filter need to be 25 micron

@MrWiseinheart 2 ай бұрын

@@1965clementso the engine gets enough fuel pressure while filtering.. if you don't have the right filter the engine is not going to get enough fuel to work. properly.

I would have put a clean towel to put things on instead of even cleaning things up and putting them back in the grit. Even wipe your fingers off through the process. Keep things clean,clean,clean

Im a long haul truck driver currently but currently looking into becoming a heavy diesel Mechanic. Still haven’t fully committed to the path yet but would like to get back to problem solving and working with my hands at some point. Been doing a lot of work on my personal Truck on home time and am really enjoying the process. Worked with machines my whole life but never thought id enjoy fixing them. Wondering if you have any insight into the CAT and Cummins apprenticeships as a jump off point getting into the industry?

@nobody8034 8 ай бұрын

How often does this need to be done ?

@MrWiseinheart 2 ай бұрын

I'd say every oil change.. I have a gauge on mine that shows me what % it's filtering at. The more it's plugged up the more pressure it needs to pump thru.

After my truck sits all night the fuel drains out of the Filter/fuel water separator. I have to refill it to get the truck to start. Any idea what causes this?
