I just want to know where the fuel filters are?

I HATE the under rail fuel filter in the OH 6's The ford engineer must have been on LCD when he thought this up.

Where did the brain surgeons at Ford decide to put the 6.4 filters , inside the fuel tank???

Same exact places as before. The one on the frame at least has a lever and hose nipple now, instead of the stupid plug. And the one up on the engine is bigger - looks like the same size cap as the frame one and the oil filter now.

"LCD"???? Never tried THAT stuff.....

Unfortunately they are not interchangeable. The fuel lines have changed and the pump output is different than the 6.0L

[GrandSlam]

That sounds about right. They would only sell a few thousand, if you could interchange them with the 6.0.

Thanks for the info...I was hoping..... I have the International drain plug for mine...just thought it would be easier.... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

But can the lever and hose nipple be swapped to the older trucks? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

No, the drain is built into the port cover and the port cover is larger so it doesn't fit earlier versions of the HFCM.

And here I thought I'd tried "everything".....

I tried a little pot once, but choked on the handle..... I always like saying that even though, in my youth, one of my hobbies was "recreational pharmacology"....
