Duramax losing prime fix.

easy repair for duramax diesel fuel prime loss. these are famous for losing prime, whether it's leaking or rings on the hand primer or the filter housing cracks. the fuel line I replace is 1/2 rubber cloth braided. hope this helps some one out .

I had to do the same to my Dmax Jay. Also had to replace two Injector connectors where the wires are bent around 180° . I hope you all are well.

My 06 LBZ duramax just lost prime again today, 1st time mine happed it was the Fuel Rail Pressure relief valve had popped once and was weak so replaced that, now a few years later doing it again, so i kinda knew i could get it started by hand pump priming it again. thats when i noticed that it leaked fuel out, looked like was comeing from the priming plunger area itself, not the bleed screw. So i guess my question is. Is that one way you can tell its probably the primer pump seal thats gone out? Ops watched your video again looks like you said that in the beginning i missed it the 1st time lol thank for the video 👍

My lbz just started loosing prime cant find rhe problem anywhere replaced the fuel filter with housing the sensor on the filter is not leaking. Replaced both lines going to the fuel filter housing. Cant see any leaks anywhere from the tank all the way to the fuel injectors its driving me nuts
