When should a fuel filter be changed? How often should you change it ? any difference to a ryco fuel filter and Oem fuel filter, other then price.

I'd suggest OEM. I recall reading a while that it never needs to be replaced... however i wouldn't do that lol.
Check with your service history book that came with the owner's manual.

screw paying double for something u can get half the price...
if u so concern about money just go cheaper...same thing tbh, if they dont filter properly. they'll be sued or shut down by now. ryco still expensive tho....go cheaper...like cooper
average is 40km with 95 octane...from manuals.
id go ryco as it still meets new car warranty standards, so quality isnt an issue but check oem as sometimes they arnt as expensive as you would think
ended up going ryco was like $30, installed it already and ran some german addative to clean the few lines, as silly as it sounds idles and takes off more better
is it also safe to remove the vacum line that comes from the top of the rocker cover into your air intake? (pretty sure its called vaccum line)
That's a PCV, leave it there. Can cause funny idle.Quote:

...dont put addictives in your fuel system after u installed a new filter....it'll get clogged faster...
and no its not safe, people add a small air filter to the cover but theres no point.
no reason i want to remove it, because ive seen people put them mini air breather off the rocker cover, and blocked up the air intake and removed their line directly.
guess ill just leave it, them lines piss me off looking at it lol.
Don't think that is a vacuum line if it is coming from top of rocker cover.. when you take it off, is there oil evident at that part of the intake??
If so then that is your pressure relief aka pcv ( positive crankcase ventilation ) and that sends the excessive pressure in block back into the intake so as to re-use it as per omissions.
Feel free to install a catch can but there is no point NOT running it so just install it back into intake :)
Their is one hose coming from Intake manifold and goes into the fuel rail .
Then their is another line that runs from air intake into the top left of the rocker cover.
Yeah the hose from the intake manifold that goes to fuel rail is to the 'fuel pressue regulator' so it will adjust fuel rail pressure based .. well basically based on throttle position.
You need that hose too bro..
