Is this over kill or extra insurance. shoul I scale back? The groups
thoughts please.
I think the manual is closer to right than you are on this one.
Unless you are having problems with clogging filters.
I change the filters whenever they become restricted. That is seldom
less than 30kmi and could be as long as 75kmi. But it only takes one bad
batch of fuel to clog up a filter!
