Fuel Filters

[MyPrevost]

It’s been a slow year and a half for home projects and other issues. I changed the oil and fuel filters but only put 3,800 miles on the coach. It’s always parked in a covered area, and I only start it when I drive it and warm it up. My last trip was in June, and in a couple of weeks, we’re heading to Malibu for my wife’s birthday. I just replaced the chassis batteries and serviced the generator. Do I really need to change the engine oil and fuel filters? The oil looks good—maybe I should send a sample in for testing?

Prevost recommends at least annually or based on mileage but at least annually.  Don will be along and recommend testing so I suppose it’s an either/or scenario.

I would say at minimum change fuel filter as diesel fuel can grow algae if it sits for a while. Unless you added fuel treatment before it was parked.

Fuel filters are on my list in next few weeks for this reason.
