The fuel filter is in the carburetor. if you're facing the engine, hood up, remove the air filter assembly. There's a large bolt in the lower right position of the front of the carburetor a little bit above the carburetor plate. You have to unscrew this bolt to get out the fuel filter. CAUTION: When I did it, the bolt was in cockeyed and it stripped out and cracked the carburetor. I had to jb weld the carb, and jb weld the bolt back in place with no fuel filter replacement. Then I had to run a hose with a removable fuel filter from the fuel pump to the carburetor. Now I can see the fuel filter and replace it readily.
If that truck has a carb it's probably inside. Take off the fuel line and remove the nut that the fuel line screws into. Pay attention to which way the filter goes. There is usually a hole in one end and a spring behind it.

If you look at the front of the carburetor you will see a medal fuel line that screws into a fitting on the carburetor. The fuel line fitting is a 5/8 and could be a 1/2 inch. The fitting that is screwed into the carburetor takes a 1 inch wrench. Take the fuel line loose from that fitting first, Then take the 1 inch fitting out of the carb. There will be a paper filter and a spring in there. That is the fuel filter. Pay attention how it comes out. It must be put back the same way are it won't run.
16 or 20 gallon tanks were available on the 1984 c10
