Suggestions on when this should be changed? Just did the 15K this morning and was looking through the manual for the fuel filter replacement interval and couldn't find the info.

I change mine out every 7000 miles.. I never know what the gas stations have floating in their tanks.. It's very easy to do.

Thanks Scott,
I wish I would have picked up a filter earlier so I could have installed it today. But, I did put those bushings on the bars and I'm looking for some serpentine turns to try them out :)

I think changing every 7000 miles is a little excessive,but it can't hurt. I always fill up with 92 Premium Chevron w/Techron and I have 47,000 miles and have never had a problem with the filter, however it is definately time to change it, before I do have a problem

May also want to replace the PCV valve pretty often... maybe after every third oil change.
