Description

Has your '97-'98, 12V Turbo Diesel developed a leak at either the top of the fuel filter housing due to years of use and material fatigue?

Have you tried to source a replacement kit from Chrysler of Cummins only to find it is no longer available or ridiculously priced?

Here is a cost-effective solution: use a replacement filter head and corresponding filter/water separator from the '94 to '96 vintage truck.

Kit includes:

  • Billet aluminum fuel filter head with fuel filter nipple
  • FS1253 fuel filter
  • 3831852 water-in-fuel sensor
  • (4) 12MM banjo bolt gaskets
  • (2) 8MM banjo bolt gaskets
To make the water-in-fuel sensor operative you simply cut and splice into the existing wire leads to the sensor.

Finally got away from the canister filter. perfect retrofit and the W.I.F sensor plugged right with a little dermal work to round the flared edge.. FYI be sure and ask for the small return line washers, I reused mine with no problem but some might not be as lucky.. Thanks Genos!!

You need to make fuel in water wires about 3 inches longer


Even a girl can install this!
