K&N Removal

I'm a noob. I just bought a 2003 F250 with a 6.0L and it came with a K&N filter (and I think the complete intake). The stock air box has been removed and it has a cone shaped K&N filter. I've read that these are not good for the diesel. What are my best options for getting rid of this filter? Can I simply replace the filter or will I have to replace the entire intake? Thanks.

Depends on the size of the intake. The 6637 filter from Riffraf has a 4" inlet and could clamp on the the intake if the is enough room.

From your description you lost the cold air intake as well.
I do have the severe duty OEM filter and running oil analysis shows very low dust pollution.
Not to mention that after 30k miles the filter indicator doesn't even move from clean position.

Check S&B or AFE and see if they have a filter that will fit on the K&N tube.
