Blake,

The need for changing the fuel filter has a few things about it... 50K is about average... but i recommend every 25k... for as little as it costs ($7-$15) it sure can save you a lot time, money, and trouble... If you drive aggressive all the time for the most part (there are always anomoly situations) your filter will be cleaner then if you drive slow... because of fuel pressure in the filter... the higher the pressure over a period of time would make it less likely for buildup to occure in the filter... Now if you use regular unleaded gas, there tends to be more "biproducts" in the fuel... whereas premium tends to have less... For the most part anyway... and if for no other reason because the fuels production process and its level of combustability... but thats all another days lesson,... lots of technicall mubojumbo... anyway hope this helps...

By the way, Always use Premium gas if you have the means, its been proven that it burns cooler (believe it or not), more efficiently, and more completely (so you have less build up of carbon and "junk" in your motor). I.E. better performance and life from the motor...
