Depends on where you drive and the type oil you use. If you drive mostly highway and use conventional oil then change it every 6,000 miles. If you drive mostly city then change it every 3,000 miles. If you drive 50/50 city highway then every 5,000 miles is a good comprimise. If you use 100% synthetic oil then every 8,000 miles highway and 6,000 miles city driving. If you make lots of short trips that are less than 10 miles then I would recommend every 4,000 miles. Also if you drive in dusty conditions then change it more often. Always change the filter at the same time you change the oil.

How often should the fuel filter be changed on a Chevy suburban?

I personally change my fuel filter on all my vehicles every other oil change. But my fuel filters are about 5 to 10 bucks. Unless yours is outrageously expensive you should consult your owners manual. It will never hurt to change as often as you want but not to replace it often enough will result in poor gas mileage an maybe damage to the fuel pump itself. Plus you will have a lack of performance an a sluggish feeling when accelerating. Your owner's manual list the scheduled maintenance on the fuel filter. Fuel today is pretty clean so changing it every other oil change is overkill but will not hurt. It is just a waste of money. I would recommend every 50,000 miles unless the owners manual states more often.
