Service VME - Fuel Filter Replacement - Owner's Manual Error

SERVICE VME

This Product Information Update is to advise you of an error in the 2004 Owners Manual Section 6, Normal Maintenance Replacement Parts. This section list the fuel filter as a replaceable part; this is incorrect as gas powered V-8 engines have a lifetime filter built into the fuel sender inside the tank and thus is not serviceable separately.

Models:
(04 Chevrolet Full Size Trucks/Utilities with 4.8, 5.3, 6.0, 8.1L Eng ) and ( 04 GMC Full Size Trucks/Utilities with 4.8, 5.3, 6.0, 8.1L Eng) and (04 Cadillac Full Size Trucks/Utilities with 5.3, 6.0L Eng) and (04 Chevrolet Express with 5.3, 6.0L Eng) and (04 GMC Savana with 5.3, 6.0L Eng)
