★★★★★ ★★★★★ 4.9/5 Stars out of 50 Reviews Sort ByVerified Buyer Read this review I am satisfied with my purchase, HOWEVER, it could have come with some type of instructions. The only paper I received was my invoice. I received no instructions. Please make sure you watch XDPs’ video on how to install this thing. You aren’t as smart as you think and you don’t know everything so watch a how-to video and humble yourself. Please make sure you put the small thin O-ring and the small thick O-ring in the correct spot or else you’ll have to take it back off like I did because it would not stop leaking. Oh, and the adapter has to be WAY tighter than hand tight just an FYI. Be careful and do not, I repeat, do not try to tighten the adapter by tightening the filter- just trust me. I almost did not get the adapter off of the filter. To summarize my 2-day long journey of a 20-minute job; take your time, do it right, and make sure you’re either Thanos or you have the correct tools to tighten this adapter on. The filter itself did not have to be super tight- just the adapter, otherwise it will leak. Verified Buyer Order #1821112. So far so good. Matty B (Oregon) | October 14th, 2022 I received the product promptly and in good condition. I replaced the stock GMC filter with the new CAT adapter and filter in my 2012 GMC LML. Install was easy. Filter appears to be working well so far. Verified Buyer Like it should Dj (Tx) | October 14th, 2022 Easy install, works like it should 👍 What about the water in filter (WIF) sensor that goes on the bottom of the factory filter? View Staff Answer Answer The Water in Filter (WIF) sensor at the bottom of your factory filter is disconnected. This sensor can be saved or discarded as it will not be re-installed. (Removal of the WIF sensor will not trigger a check engine light.)Many will argue that the stock Duramax water separator is marginal. In our opinion, you’re better off running a quality fuel additive that totally disperses water like XDP’s Diesel Power Plus additive. This concentrated formula offers a combination of ingredients that not only improves lubricity, fuel economy, and overall performance, but also offers a number of preventative properties to help keep your diesel engine at its optimal performance. The fuel treatment comes in a 16 ounce bottles that treats up to 500 gallons of fuel. (Made in the USA - Item #XDDPP116) How offten would this fuel filter need changing? I alos did not see if the fuel filter has a water relief valve. View Staff Answer Answer Used as the primary fuel filter – 10,000 Mile Intervals (The CAT Filter does not offer a water relief valve. We recomend running a quality fuel additive that totally disperses water like XDP’s Diesel Power Plus additive. Is the CAT filter more prone to clogging from fuel gelling? View Staff Answer Answer Diesel fuel can begin to cloud around 32ºF and gelling can begin as high as 10ºF - 15ºF (depending on fuel quality and location). Gelling of diesel fuel can only be avoided by using fuel additives to lower the cloud and gelling point of your fuel. Running untreated diesel, in these weather conditions, can clog filters regardless of the filter micron. Can this be ran without an aftermarket lift pump? View Staff Answer Answer Absolutely, the XDP Duramax CAT Adapter can be run on vehicle with or without aftermarket fuel systems. Ask a question about this productPlease allow up to 1 business day for reply. Why put a cat fuel filter on a Duramax?The benefit of the CAT fuel filter is simple: better filtration. While the factory filter is good for particles between 5 and 10 microns (depending on who you ask), the CAT unit filters down to 2 microns. The CAT filter also works as a water trap, though it doesn't have a drain or sensor as the factory filter does.
What does an oil filter adapter housing do?Oil can leak past through different parts. One of the most common sources of oil leak is the oil filter housing, the component that surrounds the oil filter. The oil filter housing adapter kit contains the oil filter for your vehicle.
