I have an '06 with about 22,000 miles on it and was wondering if it's nomal to have your fuel filters look this nasty.

That one had about 10,000 miles on it, the prior one I took out looked the same.
Normal or should I change them out more often?

 

yeah thats usually how mine come out. i try to change mine between 8-10k miles

brett

 

Yep It's normal...

 

mine looked just like that i I waited until 30K to change mine.

 

Yes that is normal. One guy on here said it was due to the asphaltine (?spelling) in the fuel. It makes since. Another guy on here that has a Fleetguard 2 micron before his said his comes out somewhat white/pink looking when he changes his out. 2 micron is doing it's job.

 

Thanks for the input everyone, I had been wondering if was getting bad fuel or something.

 

looks like that after 5k

 

Looks normal to me. I change mine every 10k.

And in addition, I also have a 2 micron filter before it goes to the CP3.

 

I change mine every oil change. About every 4500 or so!

 

I changed mine for the 1st time on friday, along with oil and filter. 4,186 miles on 2006 truck. Mine was dirty but not near that dirty.

 

I have a 2007 and after 8000 miles mine looked the same
