How long do fuel filters last?
Just wondering how long they last usually? mileage wise
I kno the techs at my work include a fuel filter replacement on 30K mile service on a "new" car.
I got 30k on mine now, my dad believes they last 100k miles...
Any brand recomendations?
I think i replaced mine last with a Fram fuel filter

Hi. I use wix from napa. One dirty load of gas in your tank and it is time to change your filter and it can happen again at any time. Assuming that doesn't happen then 30k would be alright but I like to change it out once a year. A dirty filter can cost you a fuel pump btw....

So think of all the chances of getting bad "dirty" gas

No... there is a sock on the pump suction, the main filter is "downstream" (after) the pump. I doubt a clogged filter would "cost you a fuel pump". The engine would stop running when it got that bad.
