OEM 68197867aa 68157291aa FS20089 68197867aa 68197867ab Diesel Fuel Filter Kit

The OEM part number 68197867AA refers to the Fuel/Water Separator Filter, a critical component in the fuel system of Dodge Ram 2500, 3500, 4500, and 5500 trucks equipped with the 6.7L Cummins turbo-diesel engine (2013–2018 model years). This spin-on diesel filter is manufactured by Mopar — the original equipment parts brand of Stellantis (formerly Fiat Chrysler) — and serves as the primary filtration stage in the dual-stage fuel cleaning process.

It plays a vital role in protecting sensitive components such as the high-pressure fuel pump (CP3/CP4), injectors, pistons, and cylinder liners from damage caused by water, dirt, sludge, and other contaminants present in diesel fuel.

Important Usage & Installation Notes

  1. Replace According to Schedule

    • Follow manufacturer recommendation: every 15,000 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first.

    • In dirty or humid environments, shorten interval to 10,000 miles.

  2. Always Use New O-Ring Seal

    • Each genuine Mopar filter includes a new rubber O-ring — never reuse old seals.

    • Damaged or dry seals cause fuel leaks and air ingestion.

  3. Drain Water Before Replacement

    • Open the manual water drain valve at the base of the filter.

    • Drain until only clean diesel flows out — dispose of water properly.

  4. Inspect Mounting Bracket

    • Check for cracks, rust, or loose bolts on the frame-mounted bracket.

    • Secure mounting prevents vibration-related failure.

  5. Install Hand-Tight Only

    • Tighten using hand torque: ¾ to 1 full turn after gasket contact.

    • Do not use wrench unless specified — over-tightening can crack housing or strip threads.

  6. Prime the Fuel System

    • Use the manual fuel lift pump (hand primer) on the primary filter to purge air.

    • Prime until resistance increases and engine starts smoothly.

  7. Use Clean Diesel Fuel

    • Poor-quality fuel clogs filters quickly — always refuel at reputable stations.

    • Avoid biodiesel blends above B5 unless approved.

  8. Replace Both Filters Together

    • Primary: 68197867AA (frame-mounted)

    • Secondary: 68157291AA (in-engine bay)

    • The 6.7L Cummins uses a two-stage system:

    • Replace both simultaneously for complete protection.

  9. Dispose of Used Filters Properly

    • Considered hazardous waste — recycle through certified centers.

    • Never incinerate or dump.

  10. Storage Advice

    • Store upright in dry indoor environment.

    • Keep protective cap on terminal and O-ring until use.
