Guys !
Just got a ‘95 f350 dually 5speed. Changed the oil and filter and the fuel filter on top of the motor - is there another filter anywhere ?

Truck has low mileage and it runs great ! Little sluggish - I might just not be used to it yet

wanted to service it before driving

thanks

I change my fuel filter every other oil change (5k on oil, so 10k on fuel filter) which has worked well for me (250k on the 94 before I sold it and 220k on the 97 currently). Cheers!

There is a little assembly on the fuel bowl called a fuel pressure regulator (FPR) the screen can get dirty there too. The pre 1999 7.3l were not known for speed to be honest.

Run quality oil, filters and a fuel additive at least in the winter if you see freezing temps. These trucks "technically" run on oil pressure so you can almost tell when your getting close on oil 5-7k ish I would GENERAIZE of course. Congrats on the truck.

Found the problem with being sluggish :

the line from the intake manifold to the boost sensor, that line was dry rotted and partially broken.replaced and the truck has much more power,due to not losing boost pressure from the turbo
