RE: Fuel Filter?

How many miles are you at? I was thinking of doing it as im at 60K miles. It doesn't hurt, its not that expensive to replace but its a bitch to get to.

No you don't. Its actually located above the gas tank so you have to drop the gas tank a bit.

60k miles is a good place to change the fuel filter.

I'm at 105K mi. still origonal. Fuel filters go gradually. You'll notice loss of power at high RPM.

In my experience 100k seems about time. Much shorter for diesels. Like every 20-40k.
