    Fully loaded today she was pushing 80 up hills and staying with traffic no problem. Glad this is fixed. Thanks again!

    Contamination. If you fill the filter....you just bypassed the filter. You can fill it from the outside in...that is the way its filtered....but good luck with that. Lots of guys prefill their filters without problems though. To each their own. It only takes once to get something in there and your buying injectors.

    How much good are you doing the injectors when you pump all the air through them from screwing a empty filter on ?
    I don't think there's much lubrication in air

    You screw an empty filter on but then you prime the system and fill the filters. It's really not hard. Yes aerated fuel is hard on injectors. But again if you prime the system no problems.

    I can change filters and prime them up and truck starts right up, no hesitation
