You tripped the Filter Minder. How dirty is your air filter??

You mean this one, right:

What Joe said, It's your air filter minder that needs to be reset.

Do all the trucks have that warning light? I sure have never seen that before.

Not sure, Lisa. I'm thinkin' that if you have a FilterMinder, you have a warning light. I have my manual in .pdf on my PCs, so it's easy for me to check stuff like that. Lemme go look and see if I can link you to the early-bird manual...

Well, I guess not. I went and checked the 99 manual, and that indicator is not there...

I get them from here:
https://www.fleet.ford.com/maintenan...ls/default.asp

BUT, it wouldn't give me the 99 F250 manual, so I grabbed the 350 version instead. It errored out for some reason on the '250. I also got my diesel supplement and maint sched from there...

I believe that was a new feature for the '02's when Ford redesigned the dash. My old '99 didn't have the light or the sensor in the air box.

I guess that's one of those "creature comforts" we get with the '02/'03s... Mine's worthless anyway -- I chucked the Filter Minder in the dumpster with the stock airbox when put in the 6637.

I know its good stuff isn't it. Are you getting the whole beans and grinding them?

My Filter Minder is broken...lol...sorta why I was wondering why I have never seen that light before.

You get the error for the 99 F250 because of the F250SD/F250LD thing. No wires going to the filter minder on the 99 so no light for us.
