Yup just as AE80TypeD said, FUEL FIlter! not OIL Filter hahahhaa.
Replacement Interval:
OIL Filter = 90915-YZZC6 - Everytime Change Engine Oil or no more than 10,000Kms
Fuel Filter = Change every Year or as per required
BTW, the 20Vs metal petrol filter (pressurized) replacement intervals are very tricky. most of the time when u start to experience funny fuel related problems (e.g. fuel starvation, low fuel pressure [need EFN AFPR+meter shameless promo], or engine jerk), it will usually be the last thing ur mechanic checks. if its the first, good for u. some mechanics try the cheapest solution first (a lot of trial n error in our workshops actually).
bcoz the problem is easily associated with the ignition systems, plugs, fuel rail, fuel pump, injectors etc.. most ppl will miss it.
properly answering the question, there are no standard interval given by all manufacturers on when u should replace the filter. one brand might say 100k, another 80k. the silently accepted practice is once a year. why? bcoz this issue is VERY relative. the filter operates on the assumption that we have dirt in our fuel. sometimes some places, ppl have clean fuel tanks. so the filter may last longer (altho it is very hard to tell). some other ppl may have dirty fuel tank or it could be the petrol from under the petrol station itself is full of little dirt.

i'd go with replacing once every year or every 2 years (cheapskate!). it is totally up to u. if u can gauge how 'dirty' ur fuel might be, formulate ur own schedule. but changing petrol filter every 6 months even with driving in KL, not economic la. the filter can take more than that. besides the dust which may come from transport n storage, the only time ur fuel tank is exposed to dust would be when u open the cap to refuel.
im using proton Wira petrol filter for my 20V. dirt cheaper. as long as the fuel supply 17" nut is the same, any EFI petrol filter (metal) will do.

Hahahahah even more cheapskate is people like me....NO FUEL FILTER AT ALL hahahahhaaha....so no need to worry about changing it laaa....just be prepared for some overhaul hahahahhaha
all trackcars like u do without the oil filter. it restricts the flow of fuel. besides, ur monster if pasang oil filter, the filter element will rosak from getting in the way of ur 108RON nitromethane fuel pushed by RB26DETT fuel pump :lol:
hahaha jk jk
hahaha jk jk

Ehhh where got RB26DET Fuel Pump....now using BOSCH SCANIA Transworld Trailer Fuel Pump Adi haaaaaa..
As for Fuel, I use Pure Xylene & Toluene up to 84%.....RON124 I tell u hahahhahahahahha

aiyaaaaa...same goes to meeee...meuheheheeh...

does oil catch tank has anything related to fuel filter...???
chinozie said:
Oil Catch Tank...DIY talk to EFN..very easy to do....done it myself (can you believe it me DUMB and DUMBER)
hahahahaaa...cheapskate...muahahaahaa
80000km or 2 years once should be nice. U won't believe the amount of stuff the little critter can filter.
BTW about AE80typeD's take about fuel pressure difference in the filter. This can easily be solved by soaking the whole fule filter in petrol and gently knocking the filter to get air bubbles out. There on installing is a little bit tricky. U need to plug both in and out, and then install the outlet first.
