I changed my fuel filter again because people are saying the b20 cleaning and the mpg issue...ect..ect..
I am taking pictures for you guys to see as well. there is a little bit at the bottom of the filter housing andd the filter looks clean...

anyway just to make sure but from searching the forums I did not find what I am looking for....

1#Is there only 1 filter or is there a filter in the tank as well?

Also I think I am going to add a see through fuel filter ( fuel/water seperator with a drain) Something you see on all the 18 wheelers.
I did see some posting about this with pictures but none are see through.

2 #anyone install a see through one?

thanks joe

I put a racor on my truck(IMHO it was the best upgrade I have ever made). there great and I can see if there is crud or water in it at a glance no more guessing when it needs drained.

there is a "screen" on the intake in the tank but I havnt seen one of those plug in a long long time.

I put a Dahl separator/ filter that I got thru Amsoil on mine, and used the finer filter element. I have been running it nearly 2 years.
