"Fuel Filter" light
Hey guys, I can't believe I'm asking this (I should know by now...) But does anyone have info on the "Fuel Filter" light? (NOT the water in fuel)
Where is the sensor for this? And can it be cleaned? (like the FPR screen?)
The light does not come on at idle, then comes on under moderate accel and goes off at about 75 MPH (2K RPM's)
Filter was just changed 2K miles ago and the old one didn't look bad.
Thanks guys
Robb

It's just a sensor and is the top one, drivers side on the filter canister. They are prone to leaking at the electrical connection. About $25 at IH. Check your fuel pressure and make sure it's up to par.

UPDATE:
The part was $25 plus tax at IH. Took 5 min to install with a pair of channel locks. Problem solved. Thanks all
