Fuel filters should be replaced at no more than 60,000 miles. As the fuel filter becomes contaminated it causes the pump to work harder to maintain pressure. This can cause the pump to overheat and drastically reduce its lifespan.
A must for any tune-up and the source for a lot of engine issues, including: hard starting, hesitations, lean mixture faults, misfire faults, and stallings. The fuel filter is easy to change and it's recommended to replace it every 30-40,000 miles. This is an OEM Mann filter.
