2020 GMC Yukon · gasoline manual selections
The checked 2020 Yukon 5.3L V8 L83 and 6.2L V8 L86 manuals describe a fuel-pump module inside the tank that contains a fuel strainer. Their fuel-system trees show condition tables and a module description, but no stand-alone fuel-filter or in-tank-strainer removal and installation leaf.
The sources reviewed here do not establish a separately replaceable external fuel filter or provide a filter-replacement procedure. They describe an in-tank fuel-pump module with a strainer. That does not prove that no aftermarket service element exists; it means the checked factory tree does not verify one. Confirm engine, drivetrain, fuel system, and part fitment by VIN before ordering or opening a fuel line.
The 2020 GMC Yukon index lists gasoline SLE/SLT/Denali selections with 5.3L L83 and 6.2L L86 engines. The selected manual pages note the same-drivetrain trim variants share the repair information, except for possible Labor Times, Fluids, and Tire Fitment differences. Use the precise selection matching your vehicle.
The fuel-system description places the electric turbine pump in a module inside the tank. Listed module components include a pump and reservoir assembly, pressure-relief regulator, fuel strainer, fuel-level sensor, and primary jet pump.
The generic Fuel Filters leaf is a condition/action table, not a Yukon-specific service interval or removal sequence. The separate in-tank strainer table addresses missing, torn, and restricted strainers, but also gives no removal/install procedure.
The manual has a separate engine-mounted high-pressure fuel-pump procedure. It is a different component from the in-tank pump module and does not supply a fuel-filter replacement sequence. Fuel-system work can release flammable fuel; follow the exact precautions for the verified repair.

The checked fuel-system chapter places the electric turbine fuel pump in a module inside the fuel tank. The module includes a pump and reservoir assembly, pressure-relief regulator, fuel strainer, level sensor, and primary jet pump. The source describes the assembly; it is not a stand-alone fuel-filter removal procedure.
The manual leaf is a general condition-and-action table. It mentions replacement at a listed service interval and conditions such as leaking, missing, restricted, or water-contaminated, but it does not identify a Yukon-specific service interval or provide removal and installation steps.
The table calls for replacement when a strainer is missing or torn and repair or replacement when it is restricted. It does not provide a Yukon in-tank strainer removal and installation sequence.
Use the VIN with a GMC parts catalog or qualified parts counter to identify the serviceable component. This page does not attach an affiliate product search because the checked manual does not establish a stand-alone filter part or confirm a fuel-pump-module fitment. That avoids directing you to the wrong component.
