Thread: Fuel filters

  1. #1

    Fuel filters

    Was reading this article:

    http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com...OnYourCar.aspx

    #17 of how to waste money on your car is to not change the fuel filter every two years.

    Do you agree?

    Where to get such a filter and what do they cost to buy new and get fitted by a garage?

    Are Williams fuel filters identical to ones from other models when searching for one?

    Thanks.

    Ok well i am going to be nice seeing as though i haven't been around much lately, however, the entire first page of 'Discussion' is taken up by threads made by 'GabrielKnight'....

    It's great you are so enthused about your new purchase, however, 90% of what you are posting can be found with a little bit of work using the search button. Its nothing personal, its just everytime you have an impulse to ask a question its simply not good etiquette to post a new thread lol.. do some searching and if it comes back negative then ask, however, it will be there... these dudes have been around a fair while!

    • I used to change mine regularly.

      Prone to clogging up I was told by an ex renault techy. Most peeps have their own opinion on it Im sure.

    I thought GabrielKnight was one of Barringtons trolling accounts?
