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?

Re: fuel filter choice

Re: fuel filter choice
I'm talking fuel filters, not oil filters, but Fram's oil filters pretty much suck, so I'm steering clear of them.
You should check this out: http://www.frankhunt.com/FRANK/corve...html#fram-ph8a http://www.shoclub.com/lubrication-o...n-oilpart5.htm

Re: fuel filter choice
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.

Re: fuel filter choice
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.

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