Fuel filters and elements are serviced by replacement only. Some
vehicle manufacturers recommend fuel filter replacement at 30,000 miles
(48,000 km). Always replace the fuel filter at the vehicle
manufacturer's recommended mileage.
The fuel filter replacement procedure varies depending on the make
and year of the vehicle and the type of fuel system. Always follow the
filter replacement procedure in the appropriate service manual. The
photo sequence below shows a typical procedure for relieving fuel
pressure and removing a fuel filter.

Installing Fuel Filters
In-line fuel filters are installed in the fuel line. In carbureted
engines, the in-line gasoline filter is usually installed between the
fuel pump and the carburetor. In vehicles with a fuel injection system,
the location of the fuel filter is determined by the manufacturer. An
arrow on the filter shows the direction of fuel flow.
SOURCE: 2000 ford f250 super duty 4x4 7.3L diesel oil leak
The HPOP (high pressure oil pump) is right under the filter housing. There are 2 lines that distribute the oil to the cylinder heads. The o-rings on those fittings go out. Kit is available from Ford or International. You will need a special wrench to get to the fittings though.
SOURCE: 1999 ford f250 7.3 diesel, leaking fuel out of the drain tube from the fuel filter
The drain valve is attached to the fuel filter with 4 screws with the star head. You can use a correct size van allen wrench to unscrew these screws (which is hard to do with little space) and put your new drain valve in. The new drain valves have huge O rings that work better than the seemingly non existent washers that come from the factory. You will first need to take out your fuel filters and drain the filter body because when you take the water drain valve off, all the diesel will come out any way. This is a good time to take apart your whole fuel filter and clean it out good. An air compressor works great. Be careful with the plug in fuel heating element if you do take the plate off that it just under the filter (two allen screws). You can unplug it and clean the bottom of your filter housing so your water drain does not plug up with the stuff on the bottom of the filter housing.
SOURCE: ford 1988 f250 will not start up.
Pass side inside on the fire wall inside by the heater core just below it. There's a black box with white botton on top. Push the white button downword to reset the fuel pump.
For the fuel filter, you'll find it along the inside fram rail in the driver's side. Just follow the fuel lines.
Good luck oh and not sure if the 1988 F250 are the same as the 86, but if they are what i typed out should help. Happy Easter
SOURCE: How do you drain the fuel tank of a 98 ford f250
If you do plan on replacing the fuel filter, just take the filter off and see if you can just run the fuel pump and catch the fuel in a gas can.
SOURCE: where is the second fuel filter on a f250 desiel
What model f250 deisel are you referring to
The 7.3 powerstrokes have fuel filter on top of engine. 6 lit engines have filter lower down in fuel line, so it depends which model and which year
The 2008 6.4 dual turbo has a pre-filter / water separator on the underside of the truck - under the driver side floor board. A second / final filter is on the top of the engine near the front. It is near the oil filter housing. Ford says to change the two at the same time. You should also drain out the water separator every month or so. (in particular in the winter when the colder weather can lead to condensation in the tanks / line) It has a lever to pull out and you only need to drain about a tablespoon of fuel get all of the water out.
Testimonial: "thank you but I think I gave the wrong model # it is a 350 but we will check it out."
