Will clogged fuel filter decrease gas mileage?
these guys over at 3.8mustang think that gas mileage cant possibly be affected by a clogged fuel filter.
i know thats not the case. i recently changed my fuel filter and NOTHING else, and went from 15/16 mpg back to 20-22. my driving style is exactly the same. just trying to clear this up.
thanks.

ya...it will effect gas milage and it will effect your cars pick up/Acceleration....My 99 stang V6 35th anver. auto, i changed it a ew days ago....my car has alittle over 61k on it...and the filter was never changed...was not aware of it when i had bought it like 2 years ago...and now that i have changed it, the car runs ALOT better, smoother and Accels much quicker.....
