How often should you change your fuel filter?

how often should you change it? my wifey car is a 2001 honda accord with 66,000 mileage and i never change the fuel filter. how do you know is clogged up? Cheaper gas stations tend to have dirtier fuel than the more expensive stations. your opinion?

Every 15,000 miles is when they reccomend doing that.

i would do it every 30 if u got a 1995-2005 model car. anything newer should always b on point.

Call Honda and ask when they recommend it, I think it's 60k...some cars are good up to 100k

 

[DFresh77]

every 50k miles...

 

[FDS]

its gotta be 15k, "according to the manufacturer". I used to work at a car dealer for 5 years.

when fuel filters get clogged, fuel wont be able to flow up to the injectors, so the engine wont start..

........And before you get to that point you might experience sputtering or misfiring/lack of power=more gas money being spent.....
