It is a good idea to change the fuel filter at the same time your vehicle is being tuned-up, and your air filter, oil filter and spark plugs are also being changed as well. A clogged fuel filter can cause your vehicle to lose perfomance and in some cases, stall out. By changing these filtering components at regular intervals that your vehicle manufacturer suggests, will help keep your vehicle running smooth, efficient, and clean.
