Glacier Diesel Power 1998.5–2002 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins MK-7 High Flow Fuel Filter System & 3/8" Big Line Kit (Non-Heated) (MK79852-BLK)
Description
If you're tired of leaking factory fuel filter canisters or looking for a better filtration system for your VP44-powered Cummins, the Glacier Diesel Power MK-7 High Flow Fuel Filter System is the solution.
Designed specifically for 1998.5–2002 Dodge Ram 5.9L Cummins trucks, the MK-7 replaces the factory fuel filter housing with a high-flow Fleetguard FS19596 fuel/water separator while upgrading the restrictive factory supply line with Glacier's proven 3/8-inch Big Line Kit. The result is improved filtration, increased fuel flow, easier servicing, and better protection for your VP44 injection pump.
Unlike the factory assembly, the MK-7 utilizes a durable spin-on Fleetguard filter mounted in the factory location for quick filter changes while maintaining a clean, OEM-style appearance.
Features
- Fits 1998.5–2002 Dodge Ram 2500 & 3500 5.9L Cummins
- Genuine Fleetguard FS19596 fuel/water separator
- Replaces the factory fuel filter canister
- Glacier 3/8-inch Big Line Kit included
- Replaces the restrictive factory supply line to the VP44
- High-flow 90 GPH filter design
- Includes Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor
- Retains factory WIF warning light with supplied connector update
- Factory-style mounting location
- Easy spin-on filter replacement
- Supports stock through high-performance applications
- Designed and manufactured by Glacier Diesel Power
Why Upgrade to the MK-7?
The factory fuel filter housing found on many 24-valve Cummins trucks is known for leaks, aging components, and restrictive fuel flow. As horsepower increases, the small factory line feeding the VP44 can become another bottleneck.
The MK-7 addresses both issues by:
- Replacing the factory filter housing with a high-flow Fleetguard spin-on filter.
- Upgrading the restrictive factory line to Glacier's 3/8-inch Big Line Kit.
The result is a cleaner, more serviceable fuel system capable of supplying the VP44 with the fuel volume it needs while maintaining excellent filtration.
Glacier Fuel System Tech Tip
The Fleetguard FS19596 is a premium fuel/water separator originally developed for Cummins industrial applications.
It provides:
- 7-micron absolute filtration
- 5-micron second-pass filtration
- 98.7% filtration efficiency
- 95% free and emulsified water separation
- Approximately 90 GPH of fuel flow with less than 1 PSI pressure differential
Combined with Glacier's 3/8-inch Big Line Kit, the system supports virtually any VP44-powered street or competition truck without becoming a restriction.
Why Glacier Built It This Way
Rather than simply offering a replacement filter housing, Glacier engineered the MK-7 as a complete fuel delivery upgrade.
The spin-on Fleetguard filter provides superior serviceability while the Big Line Kit replaces one of the smallest sections of the factory fuel system. The factory mounting location is retained for a clean installation, and the updated Water-In-Fuel sensor and connector preserve factory warning light functionality.
The result is improved filtration, improved fuel delivery, and a much easier system to maintain for years to come.

Common Failure Point
The factory filter housing on VP44-equipped trucks is well known for leaking seals, aging plastic components, and restrictive fuel delivery. Low fuel pressure is one of the biggest contributors to premature VP44 injection pump failure.
The MK-7 helps address those concerns by replacing the factory housing with a high-flow Fleetguard filter while upgrading the restrictive supply line feeding the VP44. Although no filter system can compensate for a failing lift pump, maintaining proper fuel pressure and clean fuel is one of the best ways to maximize VP44 life.
