Three questions? 97 psd

[Triflex]

Does my 97 7.3 psd have inline fuel filters?

Where do I check or can I check the oil level in the hpop?

On the fpr block there is a small screen that needs cleaning occasionally. before the screen is put back in, there is a little plastic ball that goes in first. Is there a spring between the ball and the screen? I`m only getting 15 psi. at the shreader valve. Seems like I saw a spring behind the little screen as well as the little ball. If so I have lost it and I`m hoping thats why I`m getting low psi. TIA

1st question, answer is No u do not have inline fuel filters. ur fuel filter is under the hood.

If you aren't having any running or starting issues and you don't have a leak there shouldn't be a reason to check the hpop. As far as the fpr, there is no check ball, but you can shim it with a BB. There is a thread on here with pics to show you how. I think 15 psi is pretty normal. If I'm wrong on any of this, someone will chime in and let you, and definetely me know! lol! Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply> I don`t mean the bb trick. I meant behind the small screen on the fpr there is a little plastic ball a little bigger than a bb that drops in first then the screen goes in the same hole but I need to know if there is a little spring also. What I have is ball then screen. Should it be ball, spring. screen. If it has a spring it is missing in mine. Thanks.
