I changed it today and I am nauseated. The bottom of the pan is very clean. I run Stanadyne performance almost exclusively.


My water in fuel sensor wires were hanging on by a thread apiece. By the time I got to sauder them, the remaining threads broke. I finally got them together but was a pain. Of course the stealer in town did not have any in stock.

The fragments are from the cut.

Wow, I just changed out mine today, at 10,000 miles, and only about
half of the filter was dark color. I also had no rust stains in
the can. I guess I will continue to buy fuel from where I have
been!

blnagel,


Find a different station to buy your fuel from.

I have been going to the only 2 truck stops here. I thought that higher volume would have been better. I guess I should go to the smaller stores huh?.
