The 2014 Ford F-150 truck is built with a fuel filter located inside the door near the frame and the fuel line. It's simple to locate and doesn't cost much to change out. In case it's extremely dirty or blocked, a replacement is necessary. You can purchase the filters at various stores or online, at prices ranging from $6 to $63. While Ford suggests that you shouldn't have to replace the fuel filter in this vehicle.
The fuel filter for the 2014 Ford is actually situated within the gas tank and does not require any changing.
The filter is installed on the driver's side frame rail, positioned roughly halfway between the fuel tank and the engine.
The fuel filter in a 2014 Ford F150 5.0 is located inside the FUEL TANK. According to Ford's maintenance guidelines, it is designed to last for the entire lifespan of the vehicle and does not require replacement. Recently, my dealership sent me a misleading 60,000 mile maintenance alert claiming that both the air filter and fuel filter should be swapped out. While I agree that the air filter may need changing, there is absolutely no need to replace the fuel filter, making this maintenance notice a clear scam.
I've just been to the Ford dealership, and the service manager told me that the fuel filter is located inside the fuel tank and does not require maintenance. However, it would cost six hours of labor to replace it.
I'll just need to check it out myself to be completely certain. That's the only way to be sure.
