Fuel Filter?
Fuel Filter?
hi all and best of luck for the new year:thumbup:
i know you all are going to say that no we dont need to change it
but when i Bought the avensis (before the lex) i dont change the fuel filter on that for 2 year and it use to have a poor start (just like the lex) 1 or 3 times a month
than when i changed it was fine after that
so my question is has anyone changed it?
thanks

The fuel filter is in the fuel tank, and you shouldn't have to change it on the IS200. It won't hurt to change it if you want to though.
ive changed mine, but only cause i uprated the pump.
like has been said its not hard to, but not really needed
sorry for the late reply guys (new year fever)
so which type you would recommend?
thanks

OEM one.
Mine has also been changed, again because of the uprated fuel pump.

As many of you have written the fuel filter it is a part of the fuel pump and it is located in the fuel tank. Usually it is not need to be changed. I changed mine only for precaution when i fitted the supercharger. In Greece the fuel is not so clean. You always find some other particles and impurities that might block the filter and this would not be good especially now with the SC where the fuel requirements are critical. Also changing the fuel filter it is a good idea to clean also the fuel tank!
