Warning signs that a filter needs replaced include poor engine performance or even a seize-up of your engine, decreased fuel efficiency and poor starting or stalling. Regular filter maintenance is essential - many times by the time a filter shows signs that it needs replacement, it is usually too late. your engine wont "seize up" just will run really bad if filter is blocked. just change it when you buy a new car and if you run outa gas. other than that once a year would be good

The filter is in the tank, part of the fuel pump module.Answera good possibility is that your 01 is set up the same way as my 97 and in that case, the fuel filter is part of the fuel pump. i haven't taken mine apart yet to find out if i can clean the filter or if it actually needs to be replaced, but if it does require replacement, i know that it costs around $230 from an auto parts store.
