is it possible for a fuel filter to be a defect?

and how can u tell if ur fuel filter is working properly or not?


Never seen a defective one, except for perhaps a broken clip.

If fuel is flowing through it and it is not leaking, it is working.

If your vehicle wont start or runs poorly and you thought it was the fuel filter, and you replaced

Green Living Tips

Green may be the new black, but it’s more than a trend—it’s a permanent shift towards creating a sustainable planet. In fact, taking steps to live a greener life—one that leaves as small an environmental footprint as possible—is part and parcel of living responsibly.

Sustainable living is serious business, but many effective changes require thoughtfulness more than sacrifice, good habits more than financial investment. In fact, you’ll find that acting with the environment in mind often has a positive impact on your budget, too.

“Reduce, reuse, and recycle” is the green-living mantra. Let these three words steer you in the right direction—with your purchases, at home and at work, even while traveling.

* Choose products with the least amount of waste: produce without wrapping and trays, tampons without plastic applicators, and a large jar of juice (or concentrate) rather than a dozen juice boxes, for example.

* Support green businesses with your purchasing dollars. Sustainable business practices are marketable these days, but so is greenwashing, so be selective. Co-ops have a long-standing tradition of conscientiously supporting ethical business practices.

* Bring your own bags when you shop. Tied end-to-end, the nearly 4 billion plastic bags discarded around the world each year would circle the earth 63 times. When you do use plastic, be sure to recycle it. But get in the habit of bringing your own cloth bag when you head to the store. Many stores—including your co-op—sell canvas or cotton string shopping bags.
