I change mine every 10,000 miles, or every other oil change.

By the book it's 15k interval. Which is every other oil change for me too. But I now have a pre-pump filter, so I change that one instead. LOL....

I use this one:
RACOR - FUEL FILTER ('99-'03 FORD 7.3L)-Dodge Cummins and Ford Power Stroke Diesel Truck Accessories - Geno's Garage

It's gone up a couple bucks since the last time I got one, but still a good deal. Also, make sure to check which filter you have. Some have a separate lid (stock type) and some have the lid as part of the filter. Make sure get the right one, or be prepared to buy a lid if you have the filter with it built-in and want to go back to the stock-type filter.

Thank you for the link. After I posted i searched the forums and found threads. I also went to guzzle's page. Read up on the different caps. Racor sounds like a smart buy.
