Fass Fuel Filter question???

[Richterno1]

i installed my fass about 3 years ago/over 100,000 miles. i've never changed the fuel filter and i sill have 14psi at idle and never see it lower then 12, is there any reason to change the filter?

thanks

That smells fishy to me. Usually mine needs changing about every 12-14 months.

Have you ever drained the W/S to see if there is any water in it?

yes i have drained, about once a year and not much water in it.

I was told by Diesel_Dan that he had seen guys go over 90k before without issue. I change mine once a year and the last one I cut apart had very little garbage in it... and that was an HF6604, 3 micron filter. I usually average 50k/year and never see a pressure drop... but I drain my separator at almost every fuel stop, and see water quite regularly.

We recomend 50-60K on the fuel fitlers. The water separators can be back flushed to the tune of 4 filters changes to 1 water separator change.



As long as your pressure is good... . i dont see an issue... but mileage wise... i feel you have gotten your use out of the thing (Just went 6 times longer than a stock filter)..... as cheap as the filters are, i would just get another one a tack another 90-100 on it!
