Yup...my old service manager told me that if you don't watch the type/brand
of fuel you run, it could happen as close to 30K but he's seen them go up to
60K before having to clean them. I'm at 43K now and am wondering about
pulling the tank to check it.

Thanks, I think I will. But what the screen in the tank, will that get
gunked up at some time?

<< On my 1993 Dakota, the fuel filter is external. It is located on the
driver's side inner frame rail, about a foot infront of the gas tank. It
costs $12ish and takes about 10 minutes to replace. It is bolted to the
frame using a self tapping bolt and the fuel lines connected onto the fuel
filter via hose clamps. Somewhere, somehow, and who knows why, in late
93/early 94 Dakotas started appearing with
in-the-tank style filters. I know my 1993 Dakota does indeed also have a
in-the-tank filter located on the bottom-most portion of the fuel pump
assembly module.

A lot of talk about the filter in the tank, I'm taking a guess here but
the filter is in the tank on my '00 QC? How often dose it need to be
replaced? It sounds like a lot of work for a fuel filter:(
