Who has replaced their gas filter and when do you recomend it to be done?
I have 115K on my 03 KJ and I was just thinking about the gas filter. Wondering if it is all junked up yet. The KJ seems to run fine. Actually it runs just as good as the day I brought it home

If I were in your shoes, I’d probably replace the fuel filter at least every 100,000 miles.

I've replaced mine at 30,000miles,getting ready to replace it again(I have 60,000 now).Almost every other vehicle stats change fuel filter every 30,000 so it kinda makes me change mine evry 30,000miles.A royal pain to change though.

There are 2 ways,the first is to rip the entire carpet out from the rear cargo area and then hope you have the rear access cover(which needs to be pried off,it's "glued" on),or you drop the gas tank about 4" to access the fuel filter which is on top of the gas tank.It's pricy,about $130 or so,but it has the pressure regulator built in,can't get it at regular parts stores yet either.
