That's all I have ever used.

Yea I loved my 6.0 but the fuel filter change was never on my list of fun things to do. And after 320,000 miles and changing it 20 times or so I never felt like I was getting awesome at it. But rest assure boys and girls. Ford had us in mind when they designed the new system on the 6.7 I did a happy dance after changing mine for the first time the other day. Took me about 10min or less to change both filters and not a drop of diesel hit me or the ground. I've diesel lubed my armpits, eyes, mouth and hair on the HFCM. And I'm pretty sure My 1/2 in ratchet will always smell like diesel, but I'm ok with that I'm sentimental and I will miss that 6.0H. I did learn some new tricks on this thread though. I will pass them on to my 6.0 driving buddies.
