So I bought a replacement fuel filter for my 2000 X SE 2wd. I was watching all this car shows on TV Truckin, two guys garage and a few others. And I thought I want to do some work my my vehicles so I chagned the fuel filter.

It was a very simple, quick and easy job. The filter is located in front of the fuel tank. That is on the passenger side of my 2000. There is a black bracket in front of the filter. You wont see the filter until you take the bracket off (two bolts). Anyway I took the filter off and changed it out with the new one. If you do this be sure to put the filter on correctly. Fuel only flows one way though the filter.

My X has over 90,000 miles and the filter show it. There was all kinds of black stuff in the fuel that was in the filter. It was nasty. I hope I get better gas milage now.

One last note before you remove the filter you have to release the presure in the fuel system. To do this you must remove the fuel pump fuse under the drivers side desk. Then try to start the truck 3-5 times. The first time it shoudl run for a second or two after it should not crank/ turn over.

If you want a fuel filter that will clean your emissions, make your truck run better and save you fuel by getting a cleaner burn and providing more horsepower then check out our sponsor www.Ecofuelsystems.com you can click on one of their banners on any page. For the X you want to get a Eco-2 unit. I have an Eco 3 on my Titan and it is great. I picked up 1.5mpg increase in just one tank. I am saving close to $10 every time I fuel now. The unit pays for itself very quickly. Don't take my word though check out their site and look at the links where news channels have tested them and been suprised at how well they did work. I was skeptical when I got mine but I am a true believer now.
there is a 90 day money back guarantee also so you dont have to worry if you try it and dont think it works send it back and get your money back.
check it out.

You I looked at that website twice and could not find a price for the thing. I went to one of the articles and it had a price.

Taken from a news article ----The device isn't cheap. It runs anywhere from $130 to $350 depending on the size of the vehicle you drive. But the manufacturer says it never needs to be replaced and you can even switch it to a different car later.

With gas prices as high as they've been, the one time expense might be worth it. If, that is, you get the kind of results the manufacturer promises.

That a lot of money for a fuel device, but like you said it has a 90 day money back warranty. Would they cut us a deal/group buy?

Sorry about that I didnt realize that the thread I had posted about a group buy for you guys got lost when we got hacked a week ago. We lost 5 days worth of posts. I will start the thread again in the General Discussions section.
OK
