95 or 97 cummins engine?

Actually the fuel filter did change midway through the 2nd gen 12 valve run.

The 94-96 engines and all 1st gen trucks had a spin on fuel filter.

Heres a link to the spin on type for 94-96:

From 97-98 12 valve trucks had a drop in canister filter. They have used this canister style ever since.

With the canister filters there was a change in 00 from a canister that had a flange on top to one that didn't.

Heres the flanged unit from 97-99:

And the unflanged one from 00-07.

I don't know why you may have a canister filter! Unless the mechanic has got it backwards.

There is a kit called Prime-loc that allows you to relocate the filter on 94-96 trucks to a point right in front of the intake airhorn. Prime-loc also has a kit that removes the canister filter on 96-98 trucks and installs the old style spin on filter in front of the airhorn. They call them Prime-loc because they give you a prime location and when changing the filter with one you wont lose prime. They're pretty neat but hard to find as they're out of production. New units can still be had at www.genosgarage.com.

in truth countless. you're taking care of it,and save up on the upkeep agenda,odds are very sturdy you're able to correctly be searching for a sparkling truck to positioned round your cummins. there are quite a few golf equipment for save away from trucks with over a million miles. the militia has many 900-series 5 ton trucks with their unique cummins engines,and this series grow to be presented in vietnam.the cummins can be present day in tanks,coach buses,the hot to the military stryker,commercial marine applications,turbines,and different different applications the position installation and particularly a lot forget, reliability is major.

95 would be a 12 valve mechanically controlled motor. In mid year 97 they changed to a 24 valve computer controlled motor.

They didnt go to the 24V until 98.5, the 95 and 97 12V should have the same fuel filter.
