Filter question

[SausageGuy]

Newbie here sorry if been covered. Looking at some auction trucks and noticed a filter middle of motor drivers side behind air compressor that looks like an oil filter but thought it was on passenger side. What is it to?

That is the power steering reservoir. Oh and welcome, good luck on the hunt.

Oh sorry, that would be the fuel filter more towards the middle.

I thought the fuel filter was in the water separator unit with the primer pump on it. No?

There are 2. The primary filter has the primer bulb on top and water bowl on the bottom. This feeds the lift pump on the governor. The lift pump pushes the fuel thru the secondary filter which is right behind the governor and on to the head/injectors.

Make it easy and start with this one , any new owner/driver should read it before operating anyway.
