Hey guys just wanted to know how often you guys replace your fuel filter?I usually run 15,000miles a year. 06 ctd Thanks

 

I watch my FP, when it gets lower I change it, or every 15k if you get clean fuel, if you are not sure on the fuel go 10k. I went 12k once and had it plug comletely before I had a FP gauge. Now I watch it before I change it. I know some that have went 40k+ on a fuel filter also.

 

Thanks,i think i'll change mine.

 

is it a good idea to pick up a fuel pressure guage

 

I changed mine at 15000 miles. My buddy has a 5.9 and changes his every 10-15 thousand and his are pretty dirty. Mine wasn't that bad. 5.9 is easier to change though.

 

I put on lots of miles and buy all my fuel from a cardlock, so I change mine every 5000km when I change oil....

$19 worth of insurance is a very small price to pay!!

 

That's cool changing it every 5 k but I have to pull the front driver tire and remove the inner fender well cover to have access to Filter. But I guess it is worth the preventative maintance considering the alternative.

 

Thanks, but I didnt want to hear that....I just ordered a 6.7!

I will find a better way (like convincing the dealer to do it!)....

 

Every 10,000 km for me on the 6um. 40,000km for the 144um and the 12um as well.

 

Like Longhorn.... every 5k km!
