The last few months my truck is going through filters every 20-50 miles. I can't drive the truck for fear of it dying and needing to install a new filter on the side of the highway. I've pulled fuel out of the tank and it looks clear, and I've drained the filters into a clear glass and it doesn't look dirty either. I can't figure out what's going on, but I'll be driving along and the filter light comes on and I have a couple miles before the truck will die and need the filter changed. It does this on both tanks, not sure if I should drain both tanks which are full and put in new fuel. I did fill both tanks at the same gas station, so I could have gotten bad fuel. I've run fuel cleaner through it to see if that helps, but it is still doing it. I've gone through 5 filters in the last month and less than 50 miles. I don't drive the truck much because it's my farm truck, but I do need it now for the summer months.
If I do drain all the fuel out of both tanks, what could it be used for? That's a waste of a lot of fuel, but if it fixed the truck I'll deal with it. I really just need some idea's on how to fix this soon, because we're moving out of state and I have to drive the truck 400 miles and can't be breaking down on the highway pulling my trailer full of animals. Thanks for the help everyone.
The truck is a 1990 7.3 IDI non turbo 5pd 4x4 truck.
