The fuel filter assembly on a VT365 is from a 7.3 powerstroke (or 444E IH). It is not the same filter as the 6.0 ford. Also, there is a filter on the fuel pump on the passenger side. More of a screen, or rock catcher haha. But mine has had stuff in it.
6.0's love good fuel and good oil. Change it all often. I am not a proponent of changing oil on most vehicles (my daily driver has almost 100K since an oil change haha)...but on the VT365/6.0, you HAVE to change the oil. Bad oil leads to injector stiction and a host of other issues.
By the way, if you have any stiction issues, Archoil 9100 really does work well to bandaid an injector with sticky spool valves. Its not always a permanent fix, but can help if the symptoms are small.
I use FL2016 motorcraft oil filters. The fuel filters is a Motorcraft FD4596. If someone has replaced your fuel filters with like a Wix, you will likely also need a new fuel cap. I keep a dorman 904-203 spare just in case one cracks.
