    Just changed fuel filters

    I had a Ford Tech tell me to change the fuel filters at less than 20,000 miles, Because He stated that is what is causing injector problems with the 6.0. Low fuel pressure from a dirty filter is kills the injectors.I have been changing mine every 15,000 ;tu

    What is needed to service a 6.0 ?

    That Fumoto valve is the best thing I ever had, warm the truck up slide Your pan under flip the valve, and by the time you change the filter its done, flip the valve back and pure in the new oil.;tu;tu;tu
