Fuel Filters

Not many people think about changing the fuel filter on their vehicles, however, that is an important part of maintenance. A warn car fuel filter allows dirt and debris through the lines, which could then clog the injectors – or if you are driving a vehicle that still has a carburetor, could clog the jets. Always check your owner's manual to find out when to change the fuel filter. Most filters are located under the vehicle and on the frame. Check the hose clamps on the filter to ensure they are not worn. If the clamps are worn, replace them when you replace the filter.
