Answer 1: Generally, it is suggested to change your fuel filter every 15,000 miles. It depends on how much you drive a week, type of vehicle, and strain put on it. The fuel filter will collect rust, and debris from the gas tank, and generally become clogged after time. This will place strain on your vehicle's engine and can cause costly repairs. A fuel filter will generally cost between 10 to 20 dollars.

Answer 2: It really depends on the car. Many newer cars' fuel filter is in the fuel tank, and changing it is a $100--$200 expense (and the fuel tank may have to be drained). In newer cars, the recommendation is 30,000 miles, 60,000 miles, or more. Some cars do not include changing the filter as a matter of routine maintenance. Check the maintenance schedule for your specific car to get the best answer.
