Here are the spin on fuel filters I used:
NAPA 3472
CarQuest 86472
Hastings FF898 (still in box) This one has a much nicer drain on the bottom than the other two.
I ended up with three brands all with different part numbers. The one I remember is NAPA 3472.
I'll see what the other brands and part numbers are tonight.
The heater hept the cab warm when it was in the teens and already warmed up. When we got underway after being shut down in below zero temps for a few hours it just couldn't keep up.
If I would have stopped and made a cover for the front I'm sure it would have helped, but I was dressed for it...

I got to GL for my 1:30pm pickup and they already had the truck running and warmed up. Thanks to Mike and Seth at GL for that. It was around 15 degrees at this point. A real heat wave compared to the previous days. Jeff Laumer had inspected the truck and fixed any...

Well what an adventure. I finally made it home last night around 10:00pm.
Thanks to Jeff Laumer and his roadside assistance service!
More info and pics when I get a chance this morning.
Thats funny, I wrote this one off right away thinking it would go for substantially more. The ones I picked to bid on (and actually went down to preview) all went for more than I was willing to spend.
