Fuel Filter

While looking under the hood the fuel filter (aka: your sediment bowl reference) is on the left. This filter should be changed every 20,000 miles, or more often if you suspect fuel contamination. Although I've never detected water in my fuel, at the bottom of the filter is a drain that can be check more frequently than the recommended change interval. (if water is detected when inspecting do it more often until no water is found)
