fuel filter choice

Need to buy a new fuel filter tomorrow, looking at Nippon ($29), Bosch ($21), or whichever they are selling at 3sx for $27. I see no problems going with the $21 Bosch from thepartsbin...do you?

I think a filters a filter as long as its from a name brand, which bosch is.

Fram is usually pretty good.

I'm talking fuel filters, not oil filters, but Fram's oil filters pretty much suck, so I'm steering clear of them.

So which oil filters do you use?

I have used napa in the past, they are cheep lol. From now on I think I'll use Mobil-1 or Bosch.

Where do they sell Mobil-1 filters? I've only seen Fram and Bosch.

It says on the site that they can be had at walmart or autozone, there are lots of different filters at autozone.

Back on topic.. I think that Bosch would be fine, its not like most people change their filter anyways because gas is pretty clean.. lots more clean than guky oil thats always being recycled and degraded.

Igovert, i'm happy with my Bosch fuel filter from thepartsbin.com.

as far as oil filters, go with WIX, they're the best, recommended by mechanics.

I ordered the bosch a few hours ago

Where is the fuel filter located? Somwhere near the battery?

There is a link with pictures and instructions in the FAQ...I think it was from stealth316, but I don't remember.

I think it's under the battery maybe.
