Have a 76 7000, im going to drain and change coolant and need to put a new water temp sending unit in. How important would a coolant filter be to add? Also any help on replacing the sending unit, I have never attempted before

Drain the radiator and the block and use the proper "Heavy Duty diesel pre-mixed coolant which is pinkish in color. No water filter needed. Maybe flush system with clean water after draining the old coolant. Remove temp sender with a socket, extension and a 1/2" breaker bar.
