    I replaced all fuel lines and the check valve myself on a 12.7 Detroit in a Century...what a nightmare!
    Should be a LOT easier on a Star though.

    You mean because there is a foot between the back of the head and the firewall. When I had Columbias for my drivers, I hoped and prayed I never had to do the return hose.

    So will the Davco replace both filters, or should I keep the secondary too. It is an FF 5206.

    All factory spec-ed trucks that came with a Davco have only that filter, no secondary.

    Here is Davco's chart on what filter to run. You can cross reference if you are using another brand of filter. I happen to prefer Donaldson filters, so the P550467 is the one I use in my Davco for my Series 60.

    I run a 7 micron wix. Forget the number off the top of my head.

    I run the Davco, along with the MBE fuel filter. Would never own a truck without one myself.

    If you run the davco exclusively make sure you run the 7 micron filters. They seem to last about 15,000 miles.
