It has a fairly large capacity, as fuel filters go, and I'm comfortable with a
50 to 60K interval myself. Btw, since the filter also incorporates your fuel pressure regulator built inside it, when you change the filter you also automatically get a new fuel pressure regulator. A "two-for".

Whoa! Do not buy from a dealer or other high priced retail outlet. Buy online at Rock Auto, Amazon, Ebay or even at NAPA (they have it in Wix, which is the company making them for ACDelco now anyways)
If you're going to replace it yourself and need it, I can give a current Rock Auto 5% discount code. Btw, the Wix part # is: 33737
The regular price at RA is $32.79, and that's before the 5% discount.

Oh wow. I did not get to check so I bought the freaking ACDelco thing for $95. Would have been great to get it from Rock but was trying to change it while I had the fuel system depressurized. I certainly keep that in my storage bank for next time. Thanks all.

I have 23,000 miles on my C-5. However, I think the ethanol that the refineries are blending in, is attacking the rubber seals on the fuel filter. I changed my fuel filter when the car was 3 years old, in 2004, "just because", and then had to change it again in 2012, when the seals started seeping fuel.....
