I'm trying to export a sheet to a DWG, but all of the plumbing fixtures, furniture, and other blocked items come out on Layer 0. I need to export a bunch of sheets and I would like them to come out on correct layers. They come out the color of the layer they should be on, and change with the color change, but for some reason the blocks themselves are on Layer 0.

When exporting to .DWG using Revit MEP 2013, the blocks themselves come out on the right Layer, but revert to Layer 0 upon exploding. I don't immediately see a way to change this. It sounds like you're getting the opposite results? What version of Revit are you running?
I'm using Revit MEP 2013. I believe the stuff in the blocks is on the correct layers, as changing layer colors changes some of the block colors, but the blocks themselves are on Layer 0. I think it may be ocurring because they are objects in the linked Architectural model, and not in the model itself.
Yep - if they're part of the Arch link, then that's how they'll be exported. I believe that you will have to bring them over into your model (probably best using Batch Copy/Monitor) in order to get them how you want in the exported AutoCAD drawing.
Ah. I probably won't bother then. Thanks!
