I've seen a source of Motorcraft filters posted here, but am unable to locate that right now. Need fuel filter kit and IIRC the source had them at a lower price than my dealer's $110 price.
1st off, thanks for all the great info on here! I have 1,000 miles on my 1st ever diesel and started looking for service intervals. I found this on owner.ford.com, I dont see anything about the fuel filters. Are they supposed to be changed out every 3 months for "Normal Driving"?
Thanks again (Still learning)
