    Don't plan on doing anything except add lubricity agent to the fuel and regular OEM filter changes.

    I fuel from my bulk tank, and logic dictates that if I were put a high-efficiency filter anywhere... it would be at the pump. At least that's my thinking.

    The Suburban:
    Changed injectors, presumably because it had been sitting for a while in our DRY weather. Engine has a little less than 100K by what I can tell from dealer info & extrapolating the tag info before it was wrecked.
    Stock filter(DELCO only),& I added an old Raccor 500 10 micron (I think)like we used on the 5.7L & 6.2L(BOY, that was FUN!!!) I don't have the room that the later ones have. Nothing in it after 5K. It's before the main filter. I try to buy fuel where I think they will have a high turnover.

    See below for filtration installed (installed within 10,000 miles of new in both cases). I just had someone check my injectors with a TECH 2 on the 03 since the 7 year warranty is expiring. The check showed that the injectors (return rate, etc.) are right on the money.

    Good logic indeed. Add a good dessicant breather/filter on the vent also. 99% of my fuel comes from my storage tank these days. If I make a long trip I add my 90 gallon aux tank which usually gets me home.

    FPPF Total Power in all fuel run through this tank. I buy Amoco Premier straight #2 non winterized whenever possible. I usually end up with a load of #2 winterized each year, but if I can I buy straight up and treat myself.
