the inside is bad, the filter element is a greasy, slimy black goo, with some amount of grit in it too.

90K miles. Guess you should really change this more often, huh.

Default was reading as of late>>>

with all the fuel changes, E85 etc....that the recommendation was to change the fuel filter every 30-40k.....

I waited on mine for 75k...cannot imagine what it looked like....i think i will adopt the earlier 30k interval...15$ part seems like it is a no brainer
