How often does everyone replace the fuel filter?

 

Every 10K

 

hm- could be that time....

 

yeah i think i gotta change mine too

 

So about once a year I guess?? give or take.

So mine is due.

 

Any of the big parts stores sell them for our cars or is this a Pelican thing?

 

The reason why i am putting it off is because i know that if i change the pump its going to take a couple of days. prob my lines are going to break or something.

 

If you drive once a year. I wouldnt change it once a yr

 

The only way your lines could break is if it was an original, no problems otherwise...

 

every 10k miles?! my lord i thought timing belts were bad, but that is just stupid engineering.

 

No, you can wait 30K on a fuel filter. That's the recommended mileage. However, I change mine every 15K and it takes like 20 minutes, maybe. And no, kragens, pep boys and autozone don't carry them anymore. You may have to order it. But I would just buy it from pelican like you said or your local Euro car based store. They're around. The filter is like $20. It's super easy. Good luck.

 

I do agree it is VERY easy to replace, at least Porsche kept that in mind... but damn recommended 10k miles!!! thats unheard of in most cars now a days (and i want to say in cars those days but I couldn't back it up).

 

I actually did a survey on this one a little while ago. Here's the link --> https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...ht=fuel+filter

My conclusion was that every three years is probably fine for me (equates to 18K miles)
