Default Fuel filter change

Well I just changed the fuel filter on my 95 coupe( a pain in the crotch) it's got 45k miles on it and has never been changed, so it needed to be done. When I got done I went on a hundred mile road test, it seems to take off smoother and I got 21 mpg at 70 mph. So keep your filter changed it pays off in the long run.

Yep, its a pain in the can
I take mine to a local shop I trust to let them change out the fuel filter

I do everthing else to the blue beast, but when it comes to fuel splashing all over my garage floor, I'll let someone else have that fun

Good tip for sure as replacing these in a 95 is no fun at all......
I'd like to meet the numbN^ts engineer who put the thing directly across from the CAT with room to move your little finger only in the space alloted.........
