Hi,

I'm changing my Fuel Filter tmw. I actually don't like the fact that it is a Filter, yet no Service Interval. If it has no return line, it may not clog in the same amount of time, but the very nature of a filter is to eventually clog.

I heard that the filter is replaceable on the eGas models, but as mentioned, this involves pulling the whole Pump/Gauge Sender/Filter stalk from the Fuel Tank and disassembling it, a lot more work than is waiting for me with my '99 - undoubtedly more expensive too...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
