Fuel Filter Location
Hello,
Have a 1999 power stroke 7.3l.....Am I BLIND? Where on earth is the fuel Filter located? There is a cover I know....Only thing I could find is what looks like the pump under the rail.

Here (I hope) are a couple of photos that may help. One show the relative location of the fuel filter and the other one shows where the fuel drain valve is. (You'll be wanting to know where that is eventually)

Thanks for letting me know. I thought it was getting dirty because the truck was bogging down, so I removed the filter and it was very clean looking. So...I just wondered it there was another one somewhere.

Just because Ford did not install another filter does not mean that a previous owner didn't.
My 97 has a fuel filter down right in front of the tank selector valve mounted on the inside of the frame.
