Not bad at all. I could barely get 3500 out of mine but I was towing and idling and mashing it in town. Was better before I tuned it lol

3500 out of 2 gal or 3500 to a tank full? I understand towing can either make it use more or keep it cleaned out and nkt need as much..

My hubby got real grumpy this winter when below zero, once warmed up a little seemed to be better.

Beware to all.. this might happen.. think a road gator popped uo and broke it. If it gets wet, it will trip the water in fuel light AND go intk reduced power mode!!

Had the same thing happen on my truck, first time I changed the fuel filter. I guess instead of keeping a cps in the glove box, we'll keep a wif sensor.

Lol.. yeah prolly.. im gonna build a protective cover for it. The drain gets clogged with ice in the winter so I figured now that this happened I would just build one and be done with the issues.

Do you know the part number or name for the housing that filter fits into? I'd like to order a spare but couldn't find on parts diagram.

It's broke not just I clipped? Haven't really looked at it closely?

Don't know for sure. Its the fuel filter housing that is connected to the fuel pump.

There are little tabs that hold it in that are broke off. Right now electrical tape is holding it in.

What did you drive thru? I have driven over cotton stocks and corn stocks and nothing like that has happened.

Every time I change the filter I think about adding some sort of protection. This just confirms that I should actually do it. I'm really surprised this hasn't happened more often. Time to go rummage through the scrap pile.
