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
Replace it every 50,000 miles and then you won't have to guess.
You will not know. Just replace it every 50,000 miles.
Just replace it every 50,000 miles or if you suspect it is clogged.
It is in the fuel tank. As i know fitted on the fuel pump. I am also searching for fuel filter maybe needs to be replaced :) First i know that it is in the tank, then i want to see how to replace and how it looks like at all.
Suggest replace every 15 to 30,000 miles. GM has been having a lot of fuel pump early failures.Keep the filter clean and you reduce the chance of overworking the pump. If you don't know when it was done, have it replaced and start from new.
Lack of power
Not sure what the manufacturer suggests, but I replace fuel filters every year just for good measure. A 5 dollar filter is a lot easier to replace than a 100 dollar internal fuel pump.
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.
You will not know until your engine stops. For this reason fuel filters are just replaced a a set mileage. I recommend every 75,000 miles unless the filter is in the fuel tank. In that case it requires no maintanence.
If its leaking or has been bent or crushed it needs replacing.
You cannot know when it needs changing, just change it every 50,000 miles.
