While working on my "TRAC OFF" issue, I figured I may as well replace the fuel filter since it sets right by the ABS module.My van has 58,000 miles on it and has no drivability issues. I pop the old filter off and empty it out into a container. The fuel that came out looked like creek water during/after a rain. All kinds of crud in it, and this is a vehicle with a plastic fuel tank. This crud has come from the gas stations that I have used over the years locally and while traveling. Anyways, after replacing the fuel filter I have gained about 1-4 MPG depending on where I am driving without changing my driving habits. If anybody is interested, I can post a pic of the fuel from the old filter.

Please do, can you include the location of the filter as well for those of us that have yet to replace it ourselves??
Thanks

Fuel filter location is as follows: Go to the middle of the driver door. Go under the van to the inside of the frame rail just behind the ABS pump/module. Inertia switch is located just to the lower right of the jack. I just unplugged it and ran the van down to a sputter to relieve the pressure. Need a line wrench to release the line springs for the fuel lines. Filter just slides forward out of the plastic retaining bracket. I'll pop a pic on as soon as possible of the contents of my fuel filter.

System says that the picture file is too large. Anybody who would like to see them, send me an email and Iwill send them to you.
