Agree, if your going to use that type of filter, it needs to be up by the carb where you can see it easily....and you be under the hood a lot to check it. Got rid of mine the first time it failed.

Ok got it, thanks so much for the clarification. I’m starting to understand better now they used two because the 6 port is basically discontinued. Is there any way to test those before putting back together? Is it safe to run all hoses in rear end or do I need to use cross over hard lines from tanks?
Yes it has an original looking switch on dash with a 5 wire plugged into back.I did this not to long ago. DO NOT USE the plastic/rubber rock shields. As stated they trap dirt, and cause rust on the outside, mine rusted through. Go here, this may help
Start on page 6 post 87, shows the replacement and wiring, on a six wire system, six port valve. Do you have a switch in the cab?New For Me 1985 Silverado 20 6.2 Diesel
If it gets cold where you are, the diesels had a pickup sock with a relief valve for when the fuel gels up. You're going to want that. I don't know the part number offhand, but I'll see if I have one at the shop so I can get a picture for you.
Craig, I checked that thread didn’t see nothing about the 6 wire. That info would be helpful tho. Appreciate ya trying to point me in the rite directionI did this not to long ago.

Thanks bucket. Now thinking of it that might have been the problem, when it was all connected there wasn’t a ground and it wasn’t bolted to frame it was just hanging,the return side valve
Johnny here is a good source of info on the installation and wiring for the valves etc. Bucket is right, neg to clean bare metal on frame, + to, in my case six wire connector.
