Default how often do you guys change your fuel filter on a fass system.

how many km, or miles do you usually run the aftermarket filters on a fass system. I got a titanium fass 150. haven't changed them yet. prob got around 20,000km on them from when I first got the system.

I change mine yearly, just before winter. Usually around the beginning of November. Clean, restriction free filters are a good idea for our winters.

I change mine once a year as well. I run Fleetguard or Donaldson filters with my AD.

I replace mine whenever my average fuel pressure numbers are about 1psi lower than normal...I do it purely based off of fuel pressure, and never by amount of time it has been in the truck because I sometimes might not drive the truck much, or I might drive it a lot. Depends on my mood and if I broke it or not .

kinda like right now... I'm limiting my driving of it till I get time to fix the leaking heater core, so I'm mostly driving my S10.

just my $0.02.
